Track 2

Midnight Perfume

Midnight rain on the old highway,

the radio plays a song from long ago.

Your photograph still on the dash,

the scent of you I used to know.

I know the signs, I know the cost,

still I reach for what I've lost.

Every time that melody comes through,

I forget why I walked away from you.

You pull me closer to the fire,

you wake the ghost of my desire.

I should drive on, but I remain,

dancing slowly through the rain.

Cold blue light across the glass,

every mile becomes a dangerous place.

There are words we never said,

but they still haunt this empty space.

Every time I hear that song,

I lose another alibi.

You were the last voice on the radio,

the one I never said goodbye.

Maybe love was never kind,

maybe we were born to lose our minds.

If tomorrow takes you further away,

I'll still remember you this way.

Midnight fades, the road goes cold.

I let you go... but not my soul.
