Lyrics of Midnight Outside the City
Sadness fills the nameless soul,
Awakening at midnight remembering past stories in life
Empty streets, once familiar, with someone
But love exchanged so openly, words spoken completely..
How to forget then?
Knowing the name of an acquaintance, knowing the way back home
And knowing there's a night we had a date
To ponder on sleepless nights..
Midnight cold through the heart
Amidst the streets adorned with lights
Some wander endlessly,
One arrives without a plan,
Yet footsteps echo with sorrow..
Regretfully, all efforts in vain
The streets have become deserted and sparse
Knowing there's no surplus of fate
So that we may not meet again
Returning to the dreams of the past
Long, dreary days stretch endlessly
Sometimes, amidst the chill wind, I search for home
Penetrating the frost, seeping into the soul
How many times have these lips dried in longing..
Life is filled with uncertainties
Is there someone who gathers these emotions out of love?
Sending help to dear ones to purchase a smile
And let's engrave the memory of just one night...
Chords for Midnight Outside the City

Awakening in the midnight, reminiscing past tales in life
Empty streets, a familiar face from nights gone by
Having bestowed our love [Dm] completely with words [E7] unsaid.
Then how to [Am] forget?
Knowing the name of a known soul, knowing the [F] path to [G] return [C] home
And [Am] knowing there were nights we planned to [F] meet
Let the mind [Dm] dwell on sleepless [E7] nights.
Chorus: Midnight cold [C] pierces through the heart [Em] amidst the flower-lit [Am] streets
[F] Someone endlessly [Am] seeks someone unbound [F] by fate, yet the sound of weary footsteps [E7] adds to the sorrow
Regretfully, all efforts [C] in vain [Em] the streets have become sparsely [Am] lit
[F] Knowing there's no surplus fate for us to meet [Am] again, just returning to the dreams of [F] old
2. Endless sorrow stretches [Am] through the day
Sometimes, feeling the [F] cold wind suddenly, where to [G] seek solace [C] returning

Making [Dm] lips dry countless times [E7] before.
Life still holds much [Am] melancholy.
Is there someone who, out of [F] love, gathers [G] these emotions? [C]
Sending help to dear ones to purchase a [F] smile.
And please [Dm] engrave the memory of just one [E7] night.
