Paragraph Lyric
summer, low-down under city lights
and the dress is way low-key
the hearts in the queue all beat in time
for as far as the eye can see

and even if it seems that they're drifting away
he is gripping her hand so tight
he takes a deep breath and he tries to say
that he's leaving her after midnight

flickering signs and the neon flames
all distract their riddled minds
and everyone smiles as they lose the sane
but she stops to check the time

and a tear rolls down as the seconds fall
and she's gripping his hand so tight
she takes a deep breath and she tries to say
"don't leave me here after midnight"

and her mother told her
"i was once like you,
it'll all be over
and it will seem too soon."

she's watching her sun go down
she's watching the stars burn out
after midnight
summer, low-down under city lights   and the dress is way low-key   the hearts in the queue all beat in time   for as far as the eye can see      and even if it seems that they're drifting away   he is gripping her hand so tight   he takes a deep breath and he tries to say   that he's leaving her after midnight      flickering signs and the neon flames   all distract their riddled minds   and everyone smiles as they lose the sane   but she stops to check the time      and a tear rolls down as the seconds fall   and she's gripping his hand so tight   she takes a deep breath and she tries to say   "don't leave me here after midnight"      and her mother told her   "i was once like you,   it'll all be over   and it will seem too soon."      she's watching her sun go down   she's watching the stars burn out   after midnight
