Lyrics
Midnight Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He calls about 5: 30 and tells me he'll be late
He says he'll grab a bite to eat and tells me not to wait
I go to bed at midnight and one he's still not in
I hope he's drinkin' a with the boys and not with her again
Then he pulls into the driveway his key clicks in the lock
He turns on the bathroom light and I glance at the clock
He starts the shower runnin' it's almost three a. M
He washin' off that midnight love she left all over him
He's washin' off that midnight love the perfume and the sweat
But there's more love goin' down the drain than the traces that she left
All the water in the world won't clean up where he's been
He's washin' off that midnight love she left all over him
He slips in bed and whispers sorry I'm so late
I bite my lip and close my eyes pretend I'm not awake
I can't bring myself to touch him after where he's been
Cause he can't wash off that midnight love she left all over him
He's washin' off that midnight love the perfume and the sweat
No he can't wash off that midnight love she left all over him
