Please forgive me for not smiling   Please excuse the tear in my eye   You were out late, you were playin'   I was alone late last night      It's gettin' too late, it can't be true   Has this lovin' world turned it's back on you?   Out spendin' your time, baby, diggin' for gold   Dig inside yourself, it's inside your soul      Sometimes love gets so hard and only Lord knows   Just to win the fight, we gotta take the scars   If we could change the way things might have been   I'd bet we'd go back to where it first began   I bet you would, baby      Emptiness can be a silent friend   It stays with you until love comes once again   So I hope you find what you're looking for   'Cause that friend may stay with you until the very end      Where were you when midnight struck?   Where were you when midnight hit?   Am I just a fool with such bad luck?   Where were you when midnight struck?      Hang my life by the end of a string   You tell me that our love don't mean a thing   Well, I know that it can't be true   'Cause I was up late, baby, waiting for you      And now my feelings just fade away   All my memories come to an end   That night, girl, you dragged me down   That's the night I swear, I saw the devil in you   The devil in you, girl
