Midnight Delta Blues

In the midnight hour, where the heartbeats sing Echoes of the delta where the blues begin Voices rising slow, rivers bend Carrying the weight of what the soul can't mend Fingers on the string, pulling truth from pain Rhythms in the rain, washing doubt away All this rhythm and blues, it's the fire in our veins Soulful cries that heal through the joy and the change Moves that pull you under, melodies so smooth Emotion waves crashing in the heart's quiet room R&B my love, you're the beat of the night Rooted deep in the struggle, shining ever bright From the juke joints humming, to the city lights gloom African rhythms calling, where the wild winds blow R&B my love, you're the beat of the night Face once thumping low, like a lover sigh Like a lover sigh In the groove, we surrender feet, barely touch the ground All this rhythm and blues, it's the fire in our veins Soulful cries that heal through the joy and the change Moves that pull you under, melodies so smooth Emotion waves crashing in the heart's quiet room R&B my love, you're the beat of the night Rooted deep in the struggle, shining ever bright Feel the syncopation, hearts in syncopated time Traditions woven tight, in this melody divine No words can hold the feeling, when the spirit starts to sing From the roots of yesterday, to the dreams tomorrow brings Let it act, let it flow, let it flow, let it pour Let it pour, through the veins of the soul R&B forever, making broken R&B my love, you're the beat of the night Face once thumping low, like a lover sigh In the groove, we surrender feet, barely touch the ground Soulful cries that heal through the joy and the change Moves that pull you under, melodies so smooth R&B my love, you're the beat of the night Let it act, let it pour, let it pour, let it pour R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night R&B my love, you're the beat of the night
