Verse:
It will soon be after midnight
Long since the sun has gone down
I'll be waitin' by your window
'Til your feet they touch the ground

We'll hitch a ride down to the station
To catch a boxcar train
Leaving trouble far behind us
And let the distance do the playing

Pre-Chorus:
For can't you see I love you woman
Since I first laid eyes on you (yeah...)

Chorus:
For tonight we'll be together
There ain't nothin' they can do
On this midnight rendezvous

Verse:
Before that day I was pre destined
To ride that same old lonesome track
Drifting right was my direction
Like smoke ejected from a stack

But from the time I came across you
With just a smile you held me captive
And set my world on fire

Pre-Chorus:
Please take a chance on us now, baby
If they will come to see it through (yeah...)

Chorus

Instrumental Interlude
(Over verse, pre-chorus and chorus changes)

Verse:
They're still marring our misfortunes
Laying all we have to waste
Trying to keep us separated
The moments lost can't be replaced

How can I promise you tomorrow
If I haven't got today?
But with some luck we'll surely make it
In love (???) words can convey

Pre-Chorus:
Let's steal away now from the sorrow
And kiss goodbye the life we knew (yeah...)
