In the Midnight Hour
Richard Alden His Piano and Orchestra Lyrics

When the sun is high in the afternoon sky
During daytime hours, there is always something to do and keep oneself occupied.

But from dusk 'til dawn as the clock ticks on
However, from the evening until morning hours, time seems to move differently and changes affect a person.

Something happens to you
During these night hours, something unique occurs within a person's thoughts and emotions.

In the wee small hours of the morning
During the very early hours of the morning when most people are asleep, this is when mysterious reflections and feelings surface.

While the whole wide world is fast asleep
As everyone else slumbers, you lay awake and ponder certain people or events in your life.

You lie awake and you think about the boy
Your thoughts constantly revolve around one particular person, specifically a boy.

And never ever think of counting sheep
No matter how tired you may be, counting sheep doesn't work because all you can think of is that person.

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
After experiencing heartbreak, you become wiser and more cautious in love.

You'd be his if only he'd call
There is someone you desire, and if only they would make an effort to reach out, your heart would belong to them.

That's the time you miss him most of all
During those early morning hours, your longing for that specific person is most intense and palpable.
