WAITING FOR THE MIDNIGHT BLUES Lyrics

I'm waiting for the midnight blues Staring into the midnight air Haunted by nights we used to share I'm waiting for the midnight blues I listen to the midnight blues You sang me such a sweeter song Well, sweet is not the same as long I'm waiting for the midnight blues That night you left, I made a vow, The love that you once knew here would always wait for you here Each night I lay in half my bed Set half my breakfast table, kept half my closet bare But that was then, and this is now I've spent some time unlearning the dream of you returning Where I now lie is where I choose I spread my dishes out now, my clothes hang everywhere I wait for nothing but the blues Damn you, and may you burn in Hell Damn me because I love you still I'm waiting for the midnight blues I'm waiting for the midnight blues Wond'ring where all my dreams have gone Blues my companion til the dawn I'm waiting for the midnight blues
