It begins to tell 'round midnight, 'round midnight
I do pretty well till after sundown
Supper time I'm feeling so sad
But it really gets bad 'round midnight
Memories always start 'round midnight
'Round midnight
Haven't got the heart to stand those memories
When my heart is still with you
And old midnight knows it too
When some quarrel that we had needs mending
Doesn't mean that our love is ending
I said, darling, well, I need you
Lately I find out of my arms, now out, out of my mind
Let our love take wing some midnight
'Round midnight
Let the angels sing for your returning
Let our love stay so safe and so sound
When old midnight comes around
