Lyrics
MIDNIGHT ON THE WATER
I remember the clock struck the hour so slow,
It was midnight on the water such a long time ago,
And the night smelled like flowers, the summer was new,
It was midnight on the water, I was waltzing with you.
And all the stars were in the water like they'd fallen from the sky,
We danced the night away, then you vanished with a sigh,
But in my dreams we're together and the summertime is new,
And it's midnight on the water and I'm waltzing with you.
