'Round Midnight (Remastered)

It begins to tell at midnight
'Round midnight
I do pretty well, 'til after sundown
Suppertime, I'm feeling sad
But it really gets bad
'Round midnight

Memories always start 'round midnight, 'round midnight
Haven't got the heart to stand those memories
When my heart is still with you
And ol' midnight knows it too

When some quarrel we've had needs mending
Does that mean that our love is ending
Darling, I need you, lately, I find you're out of my arms
And I'm out of my mind

Let our love take wings some midnight
'Round midnight
Let the angels sing of your returning
Let our love be safe and sound
When old midnight comes around

A pale and lonely moon lights the sky in the dark
Before the dawn
I sit here in my room
How I sigh for the day that has come and gone
Another lonely day passes by
And a new day is coming on at midnight

Tears I've shed today
Will pause waiting until tomorrow
Dreams of what could become close to me timidly
There's a brand-new day in sight
At that time 'round midnight

Life's a game of chance
And you're one of the minor players
Look for what you love
The day to come harbors some
Let your spirit stop the fight
At that time 'round midnight

Every day's gonna bring some sadness
Every day's gonna bring some gladness
So take what you can of the glad times
Don't measure your pleasure in nickels and dimes

You better look back on the day
And you'll know when you've been unhappy
Fears done chased away just mighty night have the day
Let your eyes put out their light
At that time 'round midnight

I'll think no more about today
For in a while, this old day will be yesterday
Alone at midnight here in my room
I sit here in the gloom
And let my dreams take flight
'Round 'bout midnight
