Midnight Jam Song Lyrics
Midnight Jam by Bruce Cockburn Recording all of the above and some of the below
Love is over like it never began
Flicker of life, the candle in his hand
Watch the fairy tale unfold, unwind
For this prize he traveled in his mind
Whos guilty, who decides
Who took her life, who gained the prize
Love is cheap, life's a lie
What kind of man would do this to his friend
Hand caressed, squeezed her life away
Slide into the darkness, the end of the day
Swallowed with the black, cover the light
To the fire, to the night
Love is over like it never began
Flicker of life, the candle in his hand
The queen is dying, dying and loved
Watch the fairy tale unfold, unwind, unravel
Now with his prize he'd slide into the forest beyond
You're alone, alone forever
Alone forever
Alone forever
He's gonna be alone forever
Alone forever
