From the recording This Broken Play
Lyrics
Just Get Me to Midnight
Music and Lyrics by Dirk Kroll
Just get me to midnight
And all I’ll do
Is make it just right
For me and you
I’ve got my reasons
Gotta see them through
Tonight at midnight
I gotta play the blues
Feeling like the way I do
I could see me loving you
And I just can’t take it
A twist of fate
Was dealt a wicked hand
My meeting you
Was not part of the plan
You don’t need my stuff
Get a narrow view
You get your sights set
On level two
I wasn’t supposed to fall in love
I got my orders straight from above
Straight from above
So I just can’t take it
I just can’t take it
I need my heart
I just can’t take it
Get me to midnight
Just get me to midnight
Get me to midnight
Just get me to midnight
Get me to midnight
Just get me to midnight
Get me to midnight
Just get me to midnight
Just get me to midnight
You gotta’ be there, too
It’s your fate, girl.
