Midnight At The End Of Time
They say it will soon be over
That it's just a teenage thing
They dont know what they're saying
Last night I gave you my ring
Its like I'd known you forever
We seem to go back to Creation
To the shrine of Adam and Eve
We send our invitation
Midnight at the end of time
Midnight at the end of time
I'll love you at least until
Midnight at the end of time
Youth is decried as immature
Parents think they know better
I read more common sense
Scrawled in your very first letter
Our combined wisdom is huge
We don't need any advocate
Old people tell us to slow down
When the truth is, we cant wait
Midnight at the end of time
Midnight at the end of time
I'll love you at least until
Midnight at the end of time
I cant imagine you getting old
Your face will always be young
With our love to keep us entwined
We'll never ever come unstrung
Dont listen to your mother
She's trying to pull us apart
There's only one spirit to listen to
Thats the beating of my heart
"Quit her, she's dying" your parents cry
Our bonds so strong you'll never die
Midnight at the end of time
Midnight at the end of time
I'll love you at least until
Midnight at the end of time

Hi Simon! Liked this one, better late than never! Loved the refrain.
Also' there's only one spirit to listen to, that's the beating of my heart.'
Deep sentiments expressed with an apparent lightness, but underneath that's not the message.
