Because I turned my eye toward you
Because I seek your hand
Every other woman envies you
And me, every other manA massive circle of jealousy
Is coming round again
Those prickly fingered scallywags
That masquerade as friendsMake a promise this very night
That they will no longer pose
A threat to either one of us
Then let the chapter closeFor all the midnights in the world
This one will serve us better
If you choose to be my girlLike Zuzu's petals, a wonderful life
The two of us shall lead
The children of the future've all the
Spiritual food they needThe secrets that the ones before
With grace, they've come and shown
Together with love for one another
We shall make them knownRemember the love of happy days
I number the grains of sand
Writing twelve times ever more
If I could be your manAmethyst and rubies
Crystals and black pearls
I'd trade them all just to spend with you
All the midnights in the world
All the midnights in the world
