Lyrics

Middle of the Night

By: Jimmy Buffett, Michael Utley, Will Jennings, Art Neville
1983
Middle of the night
Hold on till morning
We will see the light
Love is spawning
Middle of the night
Hold on forever
We'll know when it's right
All together

When will we listen
When will we ever learn
Read all about it
This tide has got to turn

Middle of the night
Hold on till morning
We will see the light
Love is spawning
Middle of the night
Hold on forever
We'll know when it's right
All together

Old folks and babys
They're crying in the storm
I tried to tell them
Soon they'll be safe and warm

Middle of the night
Hold on till morning
We will see the light
Love is spawning
Middle of the night
Hold on forever
We'll know when it's right
All together

Lord let us out of this hall full of mirrors
Make it all clearer
Don't let us fall
In the middle of the night

Middle of the night
New voices calling
Saying it's alright
I'm not falling
Middle of the night
Halfway till morning
Middle of my life
New days dawning

Middle of the night
Hold on till morning
We will see the light
Love is spawning
Middle of the night
Hold on forever
We'll know when it's right
All together

Middle of the night
New voices calling
Saying it's alright
I'm not falling
Middle of the night
Halfway till morning
Middle of my life
New days dawning

Middle of the night
Hold on till morning
We will see the light
Love is spawning
Middle of the night
Hold on forever
We'll no when it's right
All together
