Midnight's calling, are you close behind?
Midnight's calling, are you close behind?
Trees without leaves and notes that don't ring
Wine left to rot and a voice that can't sing
And hours of making love in sadness
And a light that just won't shine in the darkness
Could I be any clearer?
Could I speak any plainer, I need you here!
Just to lean my way
And fall, fall, fall

She'd scolded me for my sinful and wicked ways
Towered above me, do you follow?
And watched with concealed pleasures
I've ripped out my heart and said
I'm just bad, I can't help it
But I t-t-try to be good

Trees without leaves and notes that don't ring
Wine left to rot and a voice that can't sing
And hours of making love in sadness
And a light that just won't shine in the darkness
Could I be any clearer?
Could I speak any plainer, I need you here!
Just to lean my way
And fall, fall, fall

Because people make you lonely
People make you lonely sometimes
