Midnight Oil
You know the sun is low on the mountain's nose
So light a candle dear, before you have to go
I know the night is long, and the house is cold
Don't you waste your soul on me, burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
When the moon is high, and you said goodbye
Apples are my eyes for you, till you're out of sight
Don't you turn around, don't you shed a tear
Horizon eyes my dear, burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us, oh yeah
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
So light a candle dear, before you have to go
I know the night is long, and the house is cold
Don't you waste your soul on me, burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
When the moon is high, and you said goodbye
Apples are my eyes for you, till you're out of sight
Don't you turn around, don't you shed a tear
Horizon eyes my dear, burn the midnight oil
And tonight, the stars shoot like bandits
I can never understand the way they tease
And the veil of night stands between us, oh yeah
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
Which is why you have to burn the midnight oil
