Lyrics

In the Midnight Hour

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when my love comes tumbling down

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when there's no one else around

I'm gonna take you, gonna hold you

Do all the things I told ya

Midnight hour, oh baby

I'm gonna wait 'til the stars come out

And see the sweet look in your eyes

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when my love begins to shine

Well you're the only girl I know

Who really loves me so

Midnight hour, oh yeah

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when my love comes tumbling down

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour

That's when there's no one else around

I'm gonna take you, gonna hold you

Do all the things I told ya

Midnight hour, oh baby

Yes I am
