DEREK TRUCKS & SUSAN TEDESCHI BAND
MIDNIGHT IN HARLEM
Well I came to the city
I was running from the pain
My heart was bleeding
And it hurt my bones to lay
Stayed in the city
No exception to the rules
He was born to love me
I was raised to be his fool
Walk that line
Torn apart
Spend your whole life trying
Ride that train
Free your heart
Midnight up in Harlem
I went down to the river
And I took a look around
There were old man's shoes
There were needles on the ground
No more mysteries baby
No more secrets, no more blues
The stars around me
You can almost see the moon
The streets are windy
And the subways closin' down
Gonna carry the street
Till the other side of town
Walk that line
Torn apart
Spend your whole life trying
Ride that train
Free your heart
Midnight up in Harlem
