Up all night I could not sleep
The whiskey that I drank was cheap With shakin' hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette Well the sun came, night had fled And sleepy eyed I reached my bed I saw you sleepy dreamin' there all covered and warm South City midnight lady I'm much obliged indeed You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need I thought there was no reason For all these things I do But the smile that I sent out returned with you When day has left the night behind And shadows roll across my mind I sometimes find myself alone out walkin' the street Yes, and when I'm feelin' down and blue Then all I do is think of you And all my foolish problems seem to fade away South City midnight lady I'm much obliged indeed You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need I thought there was no reason For all these things I do But the smile that I sent out returned with you |

Why'd you tell me this
While you look for my reaction What do you need to know Don't you know I'll always be the one You don't have to prove to me you're beautiful to strangers I've got lovin' eyes of my own You belong to me In this life Anyone could tell Any fool can see who you need I know you all too well You don't have to prove to me you're beautiful to strangers I've got lovin' eyes and I can tell You belong to me Tell him you were foolin' You belong to me You belong to me Tell him he's a stranger You belong to me |

Hey, don't worry, I've been lied to
I've been here many times before Girl, don't you worry, I know where I stand I don't need this love, I don't need your hand I know I could turn, blink, and you'd be gone Then I must be prepared any time to carry on But minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on You will stay just to watch me, darlin' Wilt away on lies from you Can't stop the habit of livin' on the run I take it all for granted like you're the only one Livin' on my own Somehow that sounds nice You think I'm your fool Well, you may just be right 'Cause minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Call my name and I'll be gone You'll reach out and I won't be there Just my luck you'll realize You should spend your life with someone You could spend your life with someone Minute by minute by minute by minute I'll be holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I'll be holding on |

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see Tryin' hard to recreate What had yet to be created once in her life She musters a smile For his nostalgic tale Never coming near what he wanted to say Only to realized It never really was She had a place in his life He never made her think twice As she rises to her apology Anybody else would surely know He's watching her go But what a fool believes he sees No wise man has the power to reason away What seems to be Is always better than nothing And nothing at all keeps sending him ... Somewhere back in her long ago Where he can still believe There's a place in her life Someday, somewhere, she will return She had a place in his life He never made her think twice As she rises to her apology Anybody else would surely know He's watching her go But what a fool believes he sees No wise man has the power to reason away What seems to be Is always better than nothing There's nothing at all But what a fool believes he sees ... |
