Midnight strikes and the static clears
Your sleepy voice is all I want to hear
Across the miles, pulling you close to me
A late-night whisper wild and free
Rain is falling on this empty motel roof
But hearing your breath is all the proof
I need to know you're lying wide awake
Tracing shadows for my memory's sake
The highway stretches like an endless sea
But you're right here, right next to me
Close your eyes and feel my hand
Let the distance turn to shifting sand
This is a long distance call straight to your heart
Tearing down the miles that keep us apart
I'm sending every touch through the glowing screen
The sweetest midnight fire that we've ever seen
Hold on tight, don't let me go
Don't let me go
Let the midnight embers glow
I can picture the moonlight on your skin
Tempting me to let the fantasy begin
Every little sigh you breathe into the phone
Makes it harder spending this night alone
The highway stretches like an endless sea
But you're right here, right next to me
Close your eyes and feel my hand
Let the distance turn to shifting sand
This is a long distance call straight to your heart
Tearing down the miles that keep us apart
I'm sending every touch through the glowing screen
The sweetest midnight fire that we've ever seen
Hold on tight, don't let me go
Don't let me go
Let the midnight embers glow
Shadows dance across the empty room
In the quiet, flowers start to bloom
Every distance fading in the dark
Leaving nothing but a burning spark
Just close your eyes, it's Sayed on the line
Making every single moment shine
I wish I could reach through the phone and pull you closer.
Soon, it won't just be my voice keeping you warm.
