Corey Hart Lamp At Midnite
You take my heart like a bow and arrow And shoot it at me I know I walk the tight rope when it's narrow To earn my degree I know Now I'm the last boy at the playground Who's laughin' at me - I know, I know, I know And through the corridor I follow you And the chaos trips my mind Now I write you short stories Just to say we're gonna love each other all the way Well I know you're not the talkin' kind And if you really want to know me (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite Said I really want to know you (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite In a red school house where I see you In the morning light - I know Send me sailin' to pick you flowers From the isle of white - You know, you know, you know Take my eyes to the pages Where I draw pictures of your name Now I speak in dialects Just to say (We're gonna love each other all the way) You're not the kind of girl that plays the game And if you really want to know me (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite Said I really want to know you (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite And to really understand me (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite, nite, nite, nite And through the corridor I follow you And the chaos trips my mind Now I write you short stories Just to say (We're gonna love each other all the way) But I know you're not the talkin' kind, kind And if you really want to know me (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite Said I really want to know you (Oh, you know) Burn a lamp at midnite And to really understand me, oh you know Burn a lamp at midnite I said I really want to know you, oh you know Burn a lamp at midnite yeah (Da, Della) continued until the end of the song. *Corey sings with the back-up vocals.
