lyrics

MIDNIGHT LOVER

(Robert A. Wilders)

Gonna get drunk on Pepsi Cola.
Gonna get high on Lipton Tea.
Gonna reach nirvana honey.
Gonna sail our ship to sea.

Gonna trip on down the stairway darlin’.
Ride my carpet into the sky.
Gonna see if we can fly babe.
And if we can’t won’t you tell me why.

(CHORUS)
I wanna be your midnight lover.
I wanna be your midnight king.
I wanna be your midnight lover.
I’ll play my lute and you can hear me sing.
Yeah, I’ll play my lute and you can hear me sing.

You be my Gypsy lady.
I’ll be your Hungarian slave.
We’ll go ridin’ on our stallions.
Cast our nets upon the wave.

We’ll put our cards on the table.
Tell each other’s fortunes before we sleep.
I’ll take your hand and I’ll kiss each knuckle.
And watch the time slowly creep.

(repeat chorus)
