Sometime Around Midnight Lyrics - Singles - The Airbourne Toxic Event

And it starts... 

sometime around midnight 

or at least that's when 

you lose yourself 

for a minute or two 

As you stand... 

under the barlights 

and the band plays some song 

about forgetting yourself for a while 

and the piano's this melancholy soundcheck 

to her smile 

And that white dress she's wearing 

you haven't seen her 

for a while 

But you know... 

that she's watching 

She's laughing, she's turning 

she's holding her tonic like a crux 

The room suddenly spinning 

she walks up and asks how you are 

so you can smell her perfume 

you can see her lying naked in your arms 

And so there's a change... 

in your emotions 

and all of these memories come rushing 

like feral waves to your mind 

of the curl of your bodies 

like two perfect circles entwined 

and you feel hopeless, and homelss 

and lost in the haze 

of the wine 

And she leaves... 

with someone you don't know 

but she makes sure you saw her 

she looks right at you and bolts 

As she walks out the door 

your blood boiling 

your stomach in ropes 

and when your friends say what happened 

you look like you've seen a ghost 

And you walk... 

under the streetlights 

and you're too drunk to notice 

that everyone is staring at you 

and you so care what you look like 

the world is falling 

around you 

You just have to see her 

You just have to see her 

You just have to see her 

You just have to see her 

You just have to see her 

and you know that she'll break you 

in two
