Tedeschi Trucks Band – Midnight in Harlem Lyrics 8 years ago
Midnight is a metaphor for the darkest time of ones life. Also, it is usually a time when you are alone. Harlem has the reputation as being the roughest part of town. The city is the place where we go to figure out our life, to restart and return to a better time in our past after experiencing pain and hurt that life often hands us. The song is about those times when we have been let down, broken, depressed because we realize the harsh reality of living life means heartache, addiction, growing old. We all have rough spots in our life. The song is about how we can still have hope regardless of how torn up we are, that things can change if we look up, see the endlesss possibilities in the stars, maybe even a beautiful moon could be in our future if we pick ourself up let go of those things that hold us back and continue to ride that train of life through the good and bad parts. After all realizing our ambitions and dreams could be just on the other side of town.
