Lyrics

It begins to tell at midnight
 'Round midnight
 I do pretty well, 'til after sundown
 Suppertime, I'm feeling sad
 But it really gets bad
 'Round midnight
 Memories always start 'round midnight, 'round midnight
 Haven't got the heart to stand those memories
 When my heart is still with you
 And ol' midnight knows it too
 When some quarrel we've had needs mending
 Does that mean that our love is ending
 Darling, I need you, lately, I find you're out of my arms
 And I'm out of my mind
 Let our love take wings some midnight
 'Round midnight
 Let the angels sing of your returning
 Let our love be safe and sound
 When old midnight comes around
 A pale and lonely moon lights the sky in the dark
 Before the dawn
 I sit here in my room
 How I sigh for the day that has come and gone
 Another lonely day passes by
 And a new day is coming on at midnight
 ♪
 Tears I've shed today
 Will pause waiting until tomorrow
 Dreams of what could become close to me timidly
 There's a brand-new day in sight
 At that time 'round midnight
 Life's a game of chance
 And you're one of the minor players
 Look for what you love
 The day to come harbors some
 Let your spirit stop the fight
 At that time 'round midnight
 ♪
 Every day's gonna bring some sadness
 Every day's gonna bring some gladness
 So take what you can of the glad times
 Don't measure your pleasure in nickels and dimes
 You better look back on the day
 And you'll know when you've been unhappy
 Fears done chased away just mighty night have the day
 Let your eyes put out their light
 At that time 'round midnight
 I'll think no more about today
 For in a while, this old day will be yesterday
 Alone at midnight here in my room
 I sit here in the gloom
 And let my dreams take flight
 'Round 'bout midnight
