“Midnight Mirage”
Lyrics:
(Verse 1: G – Bm – Em – C)
Underneath the starry sky, (G – Bm)
Where the city lights collide, (Em – C)
That’s where I find my midnight mirage, (G – Bm – Em – C)
A mystery veiled in a fog, (G – Bm)
Running through the shadows I jog, (Em – C)
Chasing my elusive midnight mirage. (G – Bm – Em – C)
(Chorus: D – C – G)
Midnight mirage, (D)
Oh, you’re a beautiful sabotage, (C – G)
You’re a dream, a facade. (D)
You’re my midnight mirage, (C – G)
(Verse 2: G – Bm – Em – C)
In the whispers of the wind, (G – Bm)
In the echoes of a sin, (Em – C)
I hear the call of my midnight mirage. (G – Bm – Em – C)
With each step, I am drawn, (G – Bm)
To the enigma of the dawn, (Em – C)
Will I ever catch my midnight mirage? (G – Bm – Em – C)
(Chorus: D – C – G)
Midnight mirage, (D)
Oh, you’re a beautiful sabotage, (C – G)
You’re a dream, a facade. (D)
You’re my midnight mirage, (C – G)
(Bridge: Am – Bm – C)
One day I will reach you, (Am)
At the edge of the blue, (Bm – C)
I’ll hold you, my midnight mirage, (Am – Bm – C)
In the breaking of the new. (Am – Bm – C)
(Chorus: D – C – G)
Midnight mirage, (D)
Oh, you’re a beautiful sabotage, (C – G)
You’re a dream, a facade. (D)
You’re my midnight mirage, (C – G)
