Quarter to Midnight by Earthquake Lights Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Quarter to midnight
And out of a waking dream
There comes the whisper of a voice

[Chorus]
And it's calling the others
To awake in the night

[Verse 2]
And draw a breath of life
Right after midnight
They rise from a fading dream
Watching the distance for the dawn

[Bridge]
And they wait for the morning
Through a dead of the night
To remember the rising sun
And the shape of the light (light)
[Chorus}
Watch the horizon
Calling their names
Maybe tomorrow
Leaves them the same

[Bridge]
And they wait for the morning
Through the dead of the night
To remember the rising sun
And the shape of the light
And they wait to remember it
In the dead of the night

[Outro]
On the horizon
Sunlight in the haze
Clearing the shadows
Chasing them away (away)
Chase them away
