Overnight Lows Lyrics - Midnight Souvenirs - Peter Wolf

You know, some people are always runnin' away from you, love 

Hah, I guess I've been doin' that for a long, long, long, long time 

And when I first met you at Audrey's house 

Well, hah, you know I didn't think much about it 

But then I realized you were lookin' at me and I was lookin' at you 

And you were lookin' at me and I was lookin' at you 

And all of a sudden we were lookin' at each other together 

But baby, now I realize, lovers can never say good-bye 

So I was a fool, girl, to let you walk away 

I didn't care why -- I thought I'd find somebody else 

So I told you, girl, you go on and do your own thing 

Now after a while I realized the mistakes I made 

You know I can't take back the words I said 

And I can't undo the things I've done 

But tonight, you know, tonight, I'm sittin' here in the kitchen 

Right in the dark, sittin' all alone in my underwear 

With a cold baloney sandwich and a confused, confused heart there, girl 

And let me tell you somethin' 

Oh, listen 

Call me 

Oh, call me, girl 

Yeah, I'm so lonely 

(Overnight highs, overnight lows) 

(Walkin' around, nowhere to go) 

I got nowhere to go, girl 

(Overnight highs, overnight lows) 

(All goin' down, end of the road) 

Oh darlin', I can't find 

No love anymore 

(Oh my baby, ooh) 

Here I am, I'm waitin' 

So call me, baby 

Oh, call me 

Well, here I am, sittin' in the same ol' place we always used to go 

You know, I tried to call you, baby, three or four times 

It's gettin' kind o' late, the parking lot's empty 

(One o'clock) 

You know, they're puttin' all the chairs on top of the tables 

(Two o'clock) 

Yeah, they're sweepin' up the floor 

(Three o'clock) 

I'm waitin' for you, baby 

Are you gonna call me? 

(Four o'clock) 

Oh, are gonna call me? 

(Five o'clock) 

Yeah 

(Six o'clock) 

It ain't feelin' so good, yeah 

I want to tell you, girl 

I been so lonely 

(Overnight highs, overnight lows) 

(Walkin' around, nowhere to go) 

Yeah, I'm still waitin' for you, baby 

I thought I'd put on some French cologne 

And then I'd check out my astrological forecast 

You know I'm a Pisces -- we get kind o' sensitive at times 

Well, tonight, the signs said you're in for some good shwacking 

Yeah, get me a little bit o' love candle 

Put it all around my room and fill up the waterbed 

You and me, man, get a little hot oil and just do a little rub-a-dub-dub-dub 

Put a little bit o' that Grateful Dead on and we'll jam, baby 

We'll jam all night long, just you and me 

Holdin' each other, I'm talkin about ecstacy, yeah 

Oh, we'll be rubbin' a little o' that oil all over our two ch 

Oh, baby 

Hold it, man! What is that? 

I never felt that on you before 

Holy damn! No wonder... What happened? 

Wait, wait a second 

Wait a minute...
