The Midnight Hop

Verse 1

Midnight

Grass is cold against my heels

The moon sits heavy on the hill

Hidden

Bright ribbons tied in knots

Underneath the garden wall

I leave a trail

I leave a hope

I leave a sign

Watch the basket fill up high

Chorus

He’s the one with the velvet ears

Hopping through your wildest fears

Leaving sugar

Leaving gold

The greatest story ever told

He’s the bunny

Bunny

Bunny

Verse 2

Dusty

Cotton tail is shaking fast

Pink nose twitches at the glass

Look out

Painted shells and hollow chocolate

Tucked inside a muddy boot

Don't wake the house

Don't make a sound

Don't look around

Silver foil is on the ground

Chorus

He’s the one with the velvet ears

Hopping through your wildest fears

Leaving sugar

Leaving gold

The greatest story ever told

He’s the bunny

Bunny

Bunny

Bridge

Hee hee

Can you feel the spring

Can you feel the spring

Can you feel the spring

Shadows jump across the lawn

Before the break of early dawn

Left to right

Side to side

Nowhere left for you to hide

Chorus

He’s the one with the velvet ears

Hopping through your wildest fears

Leaving sugar

Leaving gold

The greatest story ever told

He’s the bunny

Bunny

Bunny

Post-Chorus

Hee hee

Outro

Gone by sunrise

Just a print in the dirt

Sweetness on your tongue

Keep on hopping

Keep on hopping

Keep on hopping

Yeah

Hee hee
