"At Midnight"
When it's midnight in the Ozarks
And the stars light the heavens above,
It is then my thoughts turn to my sweetheart,
Back to the one I love.
You left me here at midnight,
And it's then that you'll come back to me,
Oh, but I love you more than all others,
My dear, 'tis you I am longing to see.
The beauty of the world at midnight,
Bathed in the moon's pale glow,
Takes me back to the night you left me,
At midnight long long ago.
I'll be waiting for you at midnight,
Just as in days now long gone,
Yes, I will always wait, dear,
For some midnight you'll be home.
