Lyrics

Chorus — opent direct, vol energie

Midnight train, I was waiting on the platform!

Midnight train, you came rolling like a storm!

Woo-ooh-ooh, the whistle's in the air

You're the answer to my silent prayer

And I feel it taking over, it's a sweet surrender

Oh yeah, midnight train, you've got me riding through the night!

Verse 1

My, my, I was standing with my suitcase in the rain

I was waiting for a way to ease the pain

You appeared just like a shadow through the fog

And I followed you through mist and smog

I never thought a single ride could change my destiny

But now I see, oh yes, and now I see

Pre-Chorus

Oh no, here I go

The rails are getting warmer, I can't turn away

You're the one who's leading me astray

Chorus

Midnight train, I was waiting on the platform!

Midnight train, you came rolling like a storm!

Woo-ooh-ooh, the whistle's in the air

You're the answer to my silent prayer

And I feel it taking over, it's a sweet surrender

Oh yeah, midnight train, you've got me riding through the night!

Verse 2

My, my, I was certain I could make it on my own

I was standing like a statue made of stone

You came roaring like a thunder through the dark

And you left a burning, glowing spark

And every mile we travel's leading me to you

What am I to do, oh what am I to do

Pre-Chorus

Oh yeah, can't you see

You turned my lonely journey into ecstasy

You're capturing me

Chorus

Midnight train, I was waiting on the platform!

Midnight train, you came rolling like a storm!

Woo-ooh-ooh, the whistle's in the air

You're the answer to my silent prayer

And I feel it taking over, it's a sweet surrender

Oh yeah, midnight train, you've got me riding through the night!

Bridge

And so the wheels are turning, let the stars collide

You are the one who's standing by my side

I'm reaching out my hands up high

I'm letting out a lover's cry

(Instrumentaal — Piano & Sax solo)

(Final Chorus — volle energie)

Midnight train, I was waiting on the platform!

Midnight train, you came rolling like a storm!

Woo-ooh-ooh, the whistle's in the air

You're the answer to my silent prayer

And I feel it taking over, it's a sweet surrender

Oh yeah, midnight train, you've got me riding through the night!

Outro — fading

Oh, midnight train, you've got me riding through the night...

My midnight train, you've got me riding through the night!
