It begins to tell,
´round midnight, midnight.
I do pretty well, till after sundown,
Suppertime I´m feelin´ sad;
But it really gets bad,
´round midnight.

Memories always start ´round midnight
Haven´t got the heart to stand those memories,
When my heart is still with you,
And ol´ midnight knows it, too.
When a quarrel we had needs mending,
Does it mean that our love is ending.
Darlin´ I need you, lately I find
You´re out of my heart,
And I´m out of my mind.

Let our hearts take wings´
´round midnight, midnight
Let the angels sing,
for your returning.
Till our love is safe and sound.
And old midnight comes around.
Feelin´ sad,
really gets bad
Round, Round, Round Midnight
