Middle of the Night Lyrics by Lynn Miles

Night in a Strange Town

1999

Like a poet wants pain
Like a bride begs a kiss
Like a baby wants a mother
Like a gambler has to risk
Like a drunk needs a drink
An artist needs a muse
It is the middle of the night
All I need is you
Like rust needs steel
Ocean needs a shore
Like the moon needs the night
Like a pimp needs a whore
Like a river craves the bank
A cold December begs for June
It's the middle of the night
And all i need is you
And i don't need candles
Or lace or wine
And I don't care about the consequences of what I've left behind
You can take away all I have 'cause the only thing that's true
Is it is the middle of the night
And all I need is you
Like a kid loves to play
A horse loves to run
Like the sisters need Jesus
Like a robber loves his gun
Like a junkie needs his needle
There is nothing I can't do
'Cause it is the middle of the night
All I need is you
Like a train needs a track
Like the sun loves to shine
Like the world needs a conscience
Like bells need to chime
Like the stars love the sky
Guilt needs shame
I will lie here in the dark
I will call your name
And I don't need candles or lace or wine
And I don't care about the consequences
Of what I've left behind
You can take away all I have
But the only thing that's true
Is it is the middle of the night
And all I need is you
All I need is you
