Midland share a late-night love affair in their new song, "Sunrise Tells the Story." The couple left a mess in their wake, but the night sky is the only other witness with all the details. A half cigarette, a partially drunk glass of red wine, and a still-spinning record player are the only clues as to what took place the night before (but, uh, we're pretty sure we can guess). By the bridge, though, the song's narrator is hoping for more, confessing, "Don't know where it's going / I just want you to stay."
In this captivating track, lead singer Mark Wystrach sings, "The moon saw it all through a thin piece of glass / And the stars must've blushed when you kissed me like that." The lyrics convey a sense of intimacy and vulnerability, inviting listeners to reflect on their own experiences of love and desire. The song captures the essence of moments that feel both fleeting and eternal, as the narrator yearns for connection amidst the chaos of the night.
Co-written by Midland member Jess Carson alongside Jessi Alexander and Aaron Raitiere, "Sunrise Tells the Story" is part of their upcoming EP titled The Last Resort, set to be released on July 16. The EP promises to deliver more captivating stories and emotions, further solidifying Midland's place in the contemporary country music scene.
