Midnight Sun
Hampton Lionel Lyrics

Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice, warmer than the summer night
Your lips were so beautiful and inviting, like a cup made of precious stones and glowing with the warmth of a summer night.

The clouds were like an alabaster palace rising to a snowy height.
The clouds looked like a magnificent palace made of white stone, stretching up into the sky like a mountain peak.

Each star it's own aurora borealis, suddenly you held me tight,
Every star twinkling in the sky was like a beautiful glowing display, and then you embraced me tightly and I felt a rush of love and passion.

I could see the midnight sun.
In that moment, everything was so perfect and magical that it felt like I was seeing something impossible, like the sun shining at midnight.

I can't explain the silver rain that found me--or was that a moonlight veil?
I can't put into words the feeling of being showered by a light, gentle rain that felt almost like a veil made of moonlight.

The music of the universe around me, or was that a nightingale?
I felt like I was surrounded by the most beautiful and harmonious melodies in the entire universe, or maybe it was just the sweet sound of a nightingale.

And then your arms miraculously found me,suddenly the sky turned pale,
Out of nowhere, you wrapped your arms around me like a miracle, and in that moment, the world around us seemed to fade away and lose its color.

I could see the midnight sun.
Once again, everything felt so perfect and incredible that I saw the impossible - the sun shining at midnight.

Was there such a night, it's a thrill i still don't quite believe,
Even now, I can hardly believe that there was a night so wonderful and thrilling.

But after you were gone, there was still some stardust on my sleeve.
Even when you were gone, I felt like I was still touched by something magical, like I had stardust on my clothes from that incredible night.

The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, and the stars forget to shine,
Over time, the passion and excitement of that night may fade, and the beauty of the stars may pale in comparison to that memory.

And we may see the meadow in december, icy white and crystalline.
Even if we find ourselves in a cold, wintry meadow in December, everything will still seem clear and bright because of the memory of that incredible night.

But oh my darling always i'll remember when your lips were close to mine,
No matter what happens, I will always remember that moment when we were so close, our lips almost touching, and everything seemed perfect.

And we saw the midnight sun.
That was the moment when we saw the impossible and experienced something truly magical - the midnight sun.
