Lyrics
I don't know what goes through my head/ When the night comes down like a brick of gold turned to lead/ You were certain you'd seen/ My face before/ At a record shop or a joint down by the shore/ So I gave it some thought/ Then I went to bed/ My hands were shaking and my eyes were red/ And I hope someday to find just what I'm looking for/ But tonight I just can't sleep no more/ Tonight I just can't sleep no more/ Midnight blues go away/ Midnight blues, I don't wanna play/ Midnight blues go away/ Midnight blues/ There were days I swear that I don't care if the sun refused to shine/ And the night time was only friend I could find/ They're right, it's darkest, just before the dawn/ Another whiskey bottle has come and gone/ And daytime's creeping in like a thief who has a key/ Coming to take these midnight blues from me/ Coming to take these midnight blues from me/
