Lyrics
MIDNIGHT (c) Dennis Makepeace
A hotel room in a no star place,
I listen to the radio ,unpack my case
Its new years eve,no resolutions made'
My memories stay,though my dreams may fade
Cold grey walls and empty bars Boring journeys in droning cars
I try to make a call,i try to write a letter,
She's making a break,and i can,t forget her
chorus
Midnight is a lonely time ,for the things you say,theres a price to pay
Midnight is a lonely time,the loneliest part of the day
The loneliest part of the day Need for money is a dangerous thing Ambition is funny take whatever life brings
You work all nights,she works all day
No time for loving in the family way
Your kids soon grow up,those times you will miss
Your lady won't show up and you'll miss her kiss
You're waiting for a call'you're looking for a letter
Time passes so slowly and you can't forget her BRIDGT
Do you ever wonder what aims you're chasing
How are you spending the time you're wasting
chorus
chorus
the loneliest part of the day
The loneliest part of the day
