Midnight
Mr. Watson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We ran to the borderline
Where the northern lights were over us
Another cold midnight
But I could lay right here forever
And in the distant skies
Beyond the trees and rolling hills
We watched a city die
But I could lay right here forever

They say we're nothing but a heartbeat
But I can tell that when our eyes meet
We can go on forever
When everything's gone forever
When everything's gone forever

When intuition fades
And all we know is over
We'll travel to the kissing gate
Where we could stay forever

They say we're nothing but a heartbeat
But I can tell that when our eyes meet
We can go on forever
When everything's gone forever
When everything's gone forever

We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever
We can go on forever




We can go on forever
We can go on forever when everything's gone forever

Line by Line Meaning

We ran to the borderline
We hurried towards the imaginary line separating two countries


Where the northern lights were over us
At that point, the aurora borealis, a natural light display in the sky, was above us


Another cold midnight
It was once again a chilly middle of the night


But I could lay right here forever
Despite the freezing temperature, I want to remain in this position for an indefinite amount of time


And in the distant skies
Far away in the heavens


Beyond the trees and rolling hills
Past the wooded landscape and the gently undulating terrain


We watched a city die
We observed an urban area as it met its demise


But I could lay right here forever
Even though we witnessed such spectacle, I'm still inclined to lie down here for eternity


They say we're nothing but a heartbeat
Some people assert that our mere existence is based on the sound our heart makes


But I can tell that when our eyes meet
However, when our gazes intersect, I'm aware of an eternal connection


We can go on forever
We possess the capability to endure for an extended period


When everything's gone forever
Even when all things are forever lost in the end


When intuition fades
When our ability to know instinctively weakens over time


And all we know is over
And everything we're familiar with ceases to exist


We'll travel to the kissing gate
We will journey towards the locale where two halves of a gate touch


Where we could stay forever
A place where we could potentially exist for an indefinite period


We can go on forever
We can persist interminably


We can go on forever when everything's gone forever
We can endure eternally even when all things have perished
