[Verse 1]
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when my love comes a-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
Do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour

One more thing I wanna tell ya

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna wait 'til the stars come out
And twinkle in your pretty little 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 can really love me so
In the midnight hour

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
When the sun is falling down
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
When there ain't no one else around
