Smokie - I'll Meet You At Midnight
F#m Hm
A summer evening on Les Champs Elysees
F#m
A secret rendezvous they planned for days.
Hm
I see faces in the crowded cafe,
F#m
A sound of laughter as the music plays.
Jeanne-Claude was a student at the University,
Louise-Marie is just a world away.
He recalls the night they met was warm with laughter
The words and music as she turned away.
Refrain:
E F#m E
I'll meet you at midnight,
F#m E
Under the moonlight,
F#m
I'll meet you at midnight...
Hm F#m
But Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will never be...
Each cigarette would light a thousand faces,
Each hour passing like a thousand years.
Midnight was turning into empty spaces
The sound of laughter disappeared.
Refrain.
A summer morning on Les Champs Elysees,
The empty table in the street cafe.
The sunlight melting through an open doorway,
Jeanne-Claude has left to face another day.
Refrain. x2
