Midnight Lady
Chris Norman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You think love's a game, love is an ocean
Endless and so deep, always in motion

I've got many ways, to reach tomorrow
Love will always grow, no pain, no sorrow

When you take me in your arms
You can break me with your heart
I feel the magic of your charm
Oh, you're tearing me apart

Midnight lady, love takes time
Midnight lady, it's hard to find
Midnight lady, I call your name
I know you can ease my pain

Midnight lady, just you and me
Midnight lady, eternally
Midnight lady, I can fly
In your arms, I'll get high

Magic touched my life, I'm still dreaming
Anything before has lost its meaning

Heaven in your eyes, my soul is on fire
Oh, my feelings grow, we can't go higher

Oh, I just want a girl, baby, just to call my own
And I just want to dream, I don't have to dream alone

Midnight lady, love takes time
Midnight lady, it's hard to find
Midnight lady, I call your name
I know you can ease my pain

Midnight lady, just you and me
Midnight lady, eternally
Midnight lady, I can fly
In your arms, I'll get high

Midnight lady, love takes time
Midnight lady, it's hard to find
Midnight lady, I call your name
I know you can ease my pain

Midnight lady, just you and me
Midnight lady, eternally




Midnight lady, I can fly
In your arms, I'll get high

Overall Meaning

Chris Norman's "Midnight Lady" is a love song that depicts a man's yearning for true love. The opening stanza suggests that the man's counterpart thinks love is a game while he believes it is an "endless" and "deep" ocean constantly in motion that requires commitment to sail. The second verse makes clear his optimism about love, avowing that love will always grow and bring no pain, only joy.


The chorus' first stanza illuminates the difficulties of finding true love by invoking the "Midnight lady," a woman symbolic of the hard-to-find true love that most people search for. The singer calls her name not for lust, but because he believes her to be the only one who can "ease his pain." Midnight lady is his divine savior and he sees his future and happiness with her exclusively.


The second verse appears to corroborate with the chorus as it describes the "magic touched" upon the singer's life and his subsequent realization that everything before had "lost its meaning." His life is now based solely upon the midnight lady and her love, which he eyes in awe. The closing verse is the culmination of the love story, a powerful and emotional plea for a companion to share his life. He dreams of a midnight lady whose arms he could rest in and fly high together.
