Another Midnight Lyrics - Up To Here - Tragically Hip

He was a coal miner in the spring 

Blinded with its dusty resolutions 

Broke his back for higher contributions 

Now he'd take anything 

Well, she was nineteen seventy 

Burning like a cigarette long season 

Heir to all her family's old treasons 

She makes love hard like an enemy 

Oh ma, he's dying

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

And the river don't sleep 

When the water runs cold 

And the calendar burns 

As the story unfolds 

And the valley spans miles 

When the mountain stands high 

Can't they let us run wild 

For another midnight 

For just another midnight 

Perhaps we're an election day 

Pumping hands and kissing all the babies 

Ain't no time for shadowed doubts or maybes 

Is there another way? 

Or we're a stolen Cadillac 

Racing for a roadblock in the distance 

Flashing by a lifetime in an instance 

Can we take it back?

Oh ma, he's dying 

Oh ma, he's dying 

And the river don't sleep 

When the water runs cold 

And the calendar burns 

As the story unfolds 

And the valley spans miles 

When the mountain stands high 

Can't they let us run wild 

For another midnight 

Can we take it back? 

Can we take it back? 

Can we take it back? 

Can we take it back? 

And the valley spans miles 

When the mountain stands high 

Can't they let us run wild 

For another midnight 

For just another midnight 

For just another midnight 

For another midnight
