Searchlight Lyrics - John Fogerty

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

I walk along the rocky shore, the place I lost myself 

I search the water, look in the sky, I hear the cries for help 

I trace my footsteps down to the sea but then the path disappears 

Here in the darkness, I'm runnin' blind 

Been stumblin' for all of these years 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

What was the demon that made me run, can I ever hope to understand? 

I hear my voice, echoes on the wind, I try to reach out with my hand 

Without a light, I might be here forever, lost for all eternity 

There in the darkness, slippin' through my fingers 

The face that smiles back in me 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight 

Oh the midnight, need a searchlight
