Across From Midnight Lyrics - Across From Midnight - Joe Cocker

It's come down to just the two of us 

Me and my shadow on the wall 

Radio playing softly 

Somewhere down the hall 

And over in the next room 

The hollow sound of the cigarette come 

I'm sitting across from midnight 

And morning is a long way off 

There's a fire in the trashcan 

In the alley below 

A thousand others gather 'round 

Sipping wine and talking low 

We're companions of the night time 

We've got no place to go 

Just sitting across from midnight 

Time dragging by too slow

You can feel the night when you're all alone 

There's comfort in the room 

You keep hanging on 

You wait until the dawn, oh yeah 

The skeletons in the closet 

March around like [Incomprehensible] 

I guess it's too much too ask for 

I need some breathing room 

And the tall city buildings 

They cover up the moon 

I'm sitting across from midnight 

Bored and you can't come too soon 

The early morning hours 

Bring out the darkness of your thoughts 

When you sit across from midnight 

Morning's a long way off, so faraway

Sitting across from midnight 

It's dark 

Sitting across from midnight 

Me and the shadow on the wall 

Sitting across from midnight 

Morning is such a long way off 

You know I'm sitting across from midnight 

Sitting across from midnight
