Lyrics

Midnight Sharp Don Rosler, Jim Gately

everybody at the job is so uncertain
lives are stuck in limbo land
complicated and confused
for some here the clock is always ticking backwards

gonna meet my baby at
Midnight Sharp
up by the station tracks
beneath the arc

I walk along these streets, my past is in the shadows
with the flicker of a light
faces gather round the pipe
a wave of whispersmoke, familiar laughter
I know well this undertow
steady forward I will go

gonna meet my baby at
Midnight Sharp
up by the station tracks
beneath the arc
contemplate the zodiac
catch some stars
gonna meet my baby at
Midnight Sharp

and if I feel feel a sadness
lost like I was
I won?t let it bring me down
cause you?re all I think of now
so I will dream away


everything about this life is so uncertain
I?m gonna leave behind the things I know
steady forward I will go

(chorus)
