Intro

        

Verses

I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour 
That's when my love comes tumbling down 
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour 
When there's no one else around 
I'm gonna take you girl and hold you 
And do all the things I told you 
In the midnight hour  
Yes I am 
Ooh yes I am 
One more thing I just want to say right here 
I'm gonna wait till the stars come out 
And see that twinkle in your eyes 
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour 
That when my love begins to shine 
You're the only girl I know 
That can really love me so 
In the midnight hour  
Oh yeah ..In the midnight hour 
Yeah, alright, play it for me one time

Just you and I; Oooh yeah, in the midnight hours
Oh baby, in the midnight hours
