Can you feel a rumbling It's building up like thunder inside you Feel the earth is quaking The air itself is shaking around you Shadows on the moon Someone's coming very soon you will meet him The midnight rider comes for you
[Bridge]: Now is the time You know it's right It is your destiny (It is your destiny) And there'll be no more turning back So take your place in history
[Chorus]: When he ride, ride, rides across the sky You know that something has got to change When he ride, ride, rides out of the night Don't be afraid When he comes calling your name When he ride, ride, rides into your life You know that nothing will be the same Don't try to hide You can't escape the fate he brings to you Midnight rider, midnight rider
You know what it means now You've always had a dream you've been after Still you can't believe it Your dreams are all beginning to happen Over the horizon No need to be surprised when you see him. The midnight rider comes for you.
