Midnight's calling
Are you close behind?
Midnight's calling
Are you close behind?

Trees without leaves an' notes that don't ring
Wine left to rot an' a voice that can't sing
An' hours of making love in silence
An a light that just won't shine in the darkness

Could I be any clearer?
Well Could I speak any plainer?- I need you here
Just to lean my way
An' fall, fall, fall

She'd scolded me for my sinful and wicked ways
Towered above me – do you follow?
Watched with concealed pleasure
As I ripped out my heart and said
I'm Just bad, I can't help it
But I tr-tr-try to be good

And trees without leaves an' notes that don't ring
Wine left to rot an' a voice that can't sing
An' hours of making love in silence
An a light that won't shine in the darkness

Could I be any clearer?
Well Could I speak any plainer?- I need you here
Just to lean my way
An' fall, fall, fall

These people may get lonely
People may get lonely sometime.
