A pale and lonely moon
Lights the sky in the dark
Before the dawn
I sit here in my room how I sigh
For the day that's come and gone
Another lonely day passes by
And a new day's coming on
It begins to tell 'round midnight
I do pretty well till after sundown
Supper time I'm feelin' sad
But it really gets bad 'round midnight
Memories always start 'round midnight
'Round midnight I haven't got the heart to stand the memories
When my heart is still with you
And ol' midnight knows it too
When a quarrel that we had just needs mending
Does it mean that our love is ending?
Darlin', I need you; lately I find
You're out of my arms and I'm out of my mind
So let our love take wing some midnight 'round midnight
Let the angels sing for your returning
Let our love is safe and sound
When ol' midnight rolls around
~~~♫♫♫~~~
When a quarrel that we had just needs mending
Does that mean that our love is ending?
My darlin', I need you; lately I find
You're out of my arms and I'm out of my mind
Let our love take wing 'round midnight
Let the angels sing for your returning
Let our love be safe and sound
When ol' midnight rolls around
I'll think no more about today
For in a while this old day will be yesterday
Alone at midnight, all alone in my room
I sit here in the gloom
And let my dreams take flight
'Round 'bout midnight
