rain on the roof and time on my hands
it sure seemed quit out there in radio land
they call me at the all-night station
make their special dedications
and i do my best to play their request
when it's a desperate situation
this was a desperate situation
[chorus:]
i'm mr. midnight alone and blue
the brokenhearted call me up
when they don't know what else to do
every song is a reminder of the love that they once knew
i'm mr. midnight can i play a song for you
"caller on the line could you please hold on?"
i recognized her voice the minute i picked up the phone
should i tell her that it's me or leave it at a memory
haven't been myself since the day she left
and i'm never gonna be
i'm forever gonna be
[repeat chorus]
imagine my surprise when she spoke my name
she said, "could you tell him that i love him and i wish things could be the same."
then a voice i never knew
said, "honey, who you talking to?"
[repeat chorus] |
