Mr. Midnight
(J.r. Cobb- Buddy Buie- Tom Douglas)
Rain on the roof and time on my hands
It sure seemed quiet out there in radio land
They call me at the all-night station
Make their special dedications
And I do my best to play their request
When it's a desperate situation
This was a desperate situation
Chorus:
I'M MR. MIDNIGHT ALONE AND BLUE
THE BROKENHEARTED CALL ME UP
WHEN THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO
EVERY SONG IS A REMINDER OF THE LOVE THAT
THEY ONCE KNEW
I'M MR. MIDNIGHT, CAN I PLAY A SONG FOR YOU
"Caller on the line could you please hold on?"
I recognized her voice the minute I picked up
the phone
Should I tell her that it's me or leave it at a memory
Haven't been myself since the day she left
And I'm forever gonna be
I'm forever gonna be
Repeat Chorus
Imagine my surprise when she spoke my name
She said " Could you tell him that I love him
and I wish things could be the same."
Then a voice I never knew
Said "Honey, who you talking to?"
Repeat Chorus
