Middle of the Night
The Vamps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep coming back to that moment
Where it all fell apart
So I try and drink my emotions
Till I can't feel my heart

And I don't understand
How you slipped through my hands
And I do all I can
To get you out of my head

So when I call you in the middle of the night
And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you
Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time
I got so much of my loving to give you

In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night
I need you
In the middle of the night

I've got no good explanation
For what I put you through
Managing my expectations
Is what I never do

Yeah, and I don't understand
How you slipped through my hands
And I'm trying all I can
To forget you again

So when I call you in the middle of the night
And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you
Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time
I got so much of my loving to give you

In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night
I need you

So when I call you in the middle of the night
And I'm choking on the words 'cause I miss you
Baby, don't tell me I'm out of time
I got so much of my loving to give you (give you, give you)

In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night
I need you
In the middle of the night




In the middle of the night
I need you

I’m forever proud of you guys. I’m actually deaf myself and to those that are about to attack me asking how can I hear their songs, well I use cochlear implants which is similar to hearing aids. Therefore, i use sign language and seeing you guys releasing a video of people using sign language melts my heart. I often get judged for using sign language but things like this, makes me feel proud. Keep it up guys. ❤️
