It begins to tell 'Round midnight, 'round midnight; I do pretty well 'Til after sundown; Supper time, I'm feelin' sad But it really gets bad 'Round midnight
Mem'ries always start 'Round midnight, 'round midnight; Haven't got the heart To stand those memories When my heart is still with you And old 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 hearts take wing 'Round midnight, 'round midnight; Let the angels sing For your returning; Let our love be safe and sound 'Til old midnight Comes around
