Lyrics
Midnight Rose
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Late one night, lights were bright
Crowds filled the streets on broadway
Through the whirl, I watched a girl
Throwing her young life away
As the clock struck twelve nearby
I thought of her with a sigh
Midnight rose
While the lights are gleaming you suppose
That your heart is glad but tomorrow
You may find it sad so have a care when you play
Or you'll have to pay for the fun you've had
Those who bloom, in the devil's garden
Meet their doom ev'rybody knows
Will your end be like the story goes?
God for bid, little midnight rose!
Life is gay, on broadway
No one seems burdened with care
Still we know it isn't so
We read of hearts broken there
So when midnight chimes ring out
I'm always thinking a bout
