[Verse]
Midnight hangs like sorrow, heavy on my head,
Fields of corn lay hollow, where the moon lays dead.
Cicadas scream of heartache, ghosts in the winds,
By the old church graveyard, where our death begins.
[Verse 2]
Crosses cast long shadows, roots of ancient pine,
In the deafening silence, your fingers search for mine.
A love bound by the darkness, the pain we can't escape,
In a dance with the devil, where life's curtains drape.
[Chorus]
Crackles in the pines, your voice soft and clear,
Through the veil of mourning, your love's so near.
Death's a slow companion, heart wrapped in chain,
In this faded town, love bleeds in the rain.
[Solo, Hammond Organ virtuoso, melodic and emotional]

[Verse 3]
Down the dirt road pathway, memories take hold,
The rust of time can't wear away bonds that never grow old.
We lay beside the river, cold misty blue,
With nothing but the moonlight, and the ghostly hue.
[Bridge]
Midnight bells keep tolling, a dirge for fallen vows,
And each note takes me closer, to where forever bows.
The clock's hands are frozen, in this sorrow's domain,
Where death and love commingle, in eternal pain.
[Chorus]
Crackles in the pines, your voice soft and clear,
Through the veil of mourning, your love's so near.
Death's a slow companion, heart wrapped in chain,
In this faded town, love bleeds in the rain.
