The winter sky is crystal clear
In the hours before the dawn
I walk into the cold night air
Feeling lonely and forlorn
I look up to the heavens
I see a sky of special hue
And I can’t help but shiver
When I think of midnight blue
Among the stars I see a face
That is smiling down at me
My heart is filled with pain
For it is your face that I see
The memories flood my mind
With all that we’ve been through
And I can’t help but quiver
When I think of midnight blue
I can hear the sound of sighing
But from where I cannot tell
A voice drifts on the breeze
And it seems to cast a spell
My heart is filled with grief
For the voice belongs to you
My tears flow like a river
When I think of midnight blue
My arms reach up towards you
I want to cradle your sweet head
As I did when you were fevered
And I was sat beside your bed
You held my hand so tightly
You said your love was true
And then you closed for ever
Lovely eyes of midnight blue
Lovely and haunting, a precious tribute. Thank you….
