In The Midnight Hour
Samantha Sang Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm gonna wait
Til the midnight hour
That's when my love
Comes tumbling down

I'm gonna wait
Til the midnight hour
When there's no
One else around

I'm gonna take you
Girl, and hold you
And do all things I told you
In the midnight hour

Yes, I am
Oh, yes, I am
One more thing
I just wanna say

I'm gonna wait
Til the stars come out
See that twinkle
In your eyes

I'm gonna wait
Til 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

I'm gonna wait
Til the midnight hour
That's when my love
Comes tumbling down

I'm gonna wait
Til the midnight hour
That's when my love
Begins to shine

Just you and I
Oh, baby, just you and I
Nobody around baby
Just you and I

Alright, you know
I'm gonna hold you in my arm
Just you and I
Oh, yeah, in the midnight hour





Oh, baby, in the midnight hour

That 70's Girl

I do prefer the original of this song, but I'm not gonna say this was terrible. I always enjoy reading your synopsis that you take the time to write, about the song. I always wonder where these singers are today, and if there still singing. I always find my answers to my questions. Excellent video... Awesome Creativity! Thank you for sharing! đź’–
