I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour,
That's when my love comes tumblin' 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.
An' do all things I told you,
In the midnight hour.
Yes I am, whoa, yes I am.

One more thing I just wanna 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's when my love begins to shine,
You're the only girl I know,
That really love me so,
In the midnight hour.
Oh, yeah, in the midnight hour.

Yeah, alright, play it for me one time now.

Instrumental break.

I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour,
That's when my love comes tumblin' down.
I'm gonna wait, way in the midnight hour,
That's when my love begins to shine.
