Midnight Soul

Come on down I know you hear me

Singing right up there to you

The words and chords that I’ve been feeling

May be finally getting through

Wishing I had a better reason

Right now this will have to do

Because it’s you that I’ve been needing

Come on down I’ll sing a tune

 

‘Cause you’re the one that gets me dreaming

Those nights that I’m not sleeping

This midnight sees me leaving

But I’ll come back ‘round again

 

The light gets bright and won’t stop blinking

But there’s not much I can do

Just close the curtains while you’re sleeping

And hope it doesn’t shine right through

Lost cause not lost No blaming me now

Trying not to play the fool

Have it your way, it’s me leaving

The wrong way right back home to you

 

‘Cause you’re the one that gets me dreaming

Those nights that I’m not sleeping

Let me see with whom I’m dealing

And came back ‘round again

To give this heart of mine you’re stealing

A break from all this feeling

This midnight sees me leaving

But I’ll come back ‘round again

 

Take it back no bringing me down

Can’t stop now this love’s too cool

My baby’s finally loving me now

Had to find some time or two

The words and chords that I was feeling

Must have finally gotten through

It’s only you that I’ve been needing

Come on down I’ll sing a tune

 

‘Cause you’re the one that gets me dreaming

Those nights that I’m not sleeping

Let me see with whom I’m dealing

And came back ‘round again

To give this heart of mine you’re stealing

A break from all this feeling

This midnight sees me leaving

But I’ll come back ‘round again
