I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumblin' down
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there's no one Ellis around
I'm gonna take you girl, and hold you
And do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour, yes I am, oh yes I am
One more thing, I just want to say right here
I'm gonna wait till the stars come out
And see that twinkle in your eyes
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love, begin to shine
You're the only girl I know, that really love me so
In the midnight hour, oh yeah, in the midnight hour
Yeah, alright, play it for me one time, now
Instrumental
I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love come tumblin down
I'm gonna wait, way in the midnight hour
That's when my love begin to shine
Just you and I, oh baby, ha! just you an I
Nobody around, baby, just you an I
Alright, you know I'm right
I'm gonna hold you in my arms, just you and I
(fades).....in the midnight hour, oh baby, in the midnight hour
