Midnight
The Bamboos Bobby Flynn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nobody
Put it in my head
I can feel it in my bones
I knew that our love was dead

One moment
Was there and now it's gone
You were turning off the lights
But you said there's nothing wrong

'Cause you said it was all in my mind
You're so unkind, you're so unkind, yeah

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring
Over me

Somebody
They put it in your head
Givin' him the time of day
I remember what you said
Why you runnin' 'round, worrying for nothin'
There ain't nothing happening
Why you think there's something wrong?
It's all in your head, it's all in your head
And now they say that I was blind, it's so unkind
It's so unkind, you're so unkind, yeah

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring
Over me, over me

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring
Over me, over me

I wish I could go back and you could prove me wrong
'Cause there's no joy in being right now you have gone
I spend my time holding up the flame over you

Said that everything we had, it meant so much
If pain is made of gold, you've got the Midas touch
Spend my time taking all the blame over you

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring
Over me, over me

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring
Over me, over me

When midnight is calling
And all my teardrops are falling
And when the rain comes a-pouring




Over me, over me
When midnight is calling
