Midnight Passenger Lyrics

that flickered on a black and white reel

looking for something that i could not explain

i could only feel

these were the songs upheld by the shades

that spoke to me as i left town

israelites, the harder they come, 56-47

i hear them now

and the words of the prophets never sounded

as good as the echo of a hard one drop

to be forever enslaved by the sound the creator made --

don't let it stop

come again, midnight passenger

there to accompany down

to the end of the souls lost avenue

feel it now

i kept walking in the dust all night

looking for a diamond in the crush

halfway under in bars like a ship that was going down -- or coming up

it was not the sun that stung,

but the feel of loss and the voice of suffering and fate

till i just stopped listening to the chatter of all those yesterdays -- crime pays

we will show up with all our secret problems

and if we can't find land

there's a tone written into soul songs that understands

we will be free
