"Please," she says, "we've gone too far,
Our guiding star is faint and fading.
The snows covered over our tracks
And paths once marked are but a pale memory."
I said, "I'm sorry for the way that I've acted,
I've been feeling infected, defective, and cold.
You see, the stars try to dig through the clouds
And they'll make it by morning, or that's what I'm told."
Because it's always midnight somewhere
Somewhere it's a brand new day.
And someone's being born somewhere.
She opens her eyes as the light hits her face.
I find myself to stare in amazement
As these visions pass by slow.
Through the smallest crack in the pavement
In a dim back alley blooms a rose.
And we're falling down again, my dear, but I won't, I won't.
We're falling down again, my dear, but I won't, I won't let you break.
"Well alright," she says, "I'll just let it go.
I've seen the sky look this way before.
And the roots grow deeper than this city knows,
We stretch for miles from shore to shore."
Because it's always midnight somewhere
Somewhere it's a brand new day.
And someone's being born somewhere.
She opens her eyes as the light hits her face.
I find myself to stare in amazement
As these visions pass by slow.
Through the smallest crack in the pavement
In a dim back alley blooms a rose.
And we're falling down again, my dear, but I won't, I won't.
We're falling down again, my dear, but I won't, I won't let you...
We're falling down again, my dear, but I won't. I won't.
We're falling down again, my dear, but I won't. I won't let you break.
Because it's always midnight somewhere.
Somewhere it's a brand new day.
And someone's being born somewhere.
She opens her eyes as the light hits her face.
And someone's laughing somewhere
While someone's crying somewhere.
And we're all headed somewhere.
Yeah, we're all headed somewhere.
And we're gonna make it somewhere.
We're gonna make it somewhere
We're gonna make it somewhere
We're gonna make it somewhere
