Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Walking Through Midnight lyrics

(J. Lyon/B. Springsteen)

Well I've been walking through midnight

And there's no trace of dawn

I'm stuck in this moonlight

It's leading me on

My body's on fire

And I can't stand the pain

This burning desire

That I feel once again

Now I'm fighting with madness

As I move down the street

Surrounded by sadness

In midwestern heat

And the street lamps are glowing

Like coals in the mist

Their light keeps me moving

And I just can't resist

Now there's peace in this valley

But none in my mind

Like a drunk in an alley

Well, I'm stumbling blind

With no destination

At an unholy speed

I must keep on movin'

Try to walk off this need
