[Verse 1]
How long can I leave the lights in the ceiling on?
And the static from the TV keeps me company till I'm gone
'Cause I rock back and forth
Reciting words that I've said wrong
I swear I've been doing fine
When I'm busy and got things going on
Oh, so girl, what you running from?
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's something in the midnight hours
The midnight hours, you know
And maybe there's something in the dead of night
When I'm sleeping alone
Where I always see your face
God, I wish I didn't though
Can I have one night, one night, one night
Where it's just me alone?
[Verse 2]
Is it 'cause I've been feeling guilty all along?
Or is it the gods just tryna tell me to move on?
'Cause while you're haunting me, that's what you've done
Oh, so girl, what you running from? (Oh)
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's something in the midnight hours
The midnight hours, you know (Something in the—)
Or maybe there's something in the dead of night
When I'm sleeping alone
Where I always see your face (I always see your face)
God, I wish I didn't though (I wish I didn't though)
Can I have one night, one night, one night
Where it's just me alone?
[Post-Chorus]
So I, I know what it feels like
So I can wake up in the daylight
And my chest ain't heavy
'Cause you're not there with me
Tell me when that I will be
[Bridge]
Oh, 'cause I rock back and forth
Reciting words that I've said wrong
I swear I've been doing fine
When I'm busy and got things going on
So what am I running from?
[Chorus]
Oh, maybe there's something in the midnight hours
The midnight hours, you know
Or maybe there's something in the dead of night
When I'm sleeping alone
Where I always see your face
God, I wish I didn't though
Can I have one night, one night, one night
Where it's just me alone? (Oh)
[Outro]
One night, one night, yeah
So can I have one night, one night, just one night
One night, one night, one night
Can I have one night, one night, just one night
Where it's just me alone?
