He blew in town at midnight and he didn't mean to stay |
|
He found her just at closing time at the Alamo Cafe |
|
And the way he smiled and carried on it kinda made her day |
|
So by the time that she left he left with her |
|
And she let him borrow money and she let him drive her car |
|
She didn't really trust him but she done and gone too far |
|
When the midnight moon is shining when it's shining down the way |
|
If he blew in on the midnight wind he may never pass this way again |
|
She knew down in her heart that he would only stay awhile |
|
But sometimes she was a woman and sometimes she was a child |
|
Then just about the time that she was learning how to smile |
|
One Tuesday night he came up missing |
|
And sometimes now she thinks she hears his footsteps cross the floor |
|
But it's just that midnight wind howling around the door |
|
When the midnight moon is shining... |
|
When the midnight moon is shining... |
