There's an empty nail on a plaster wall

Somewhere inside my mind

Neon blue sign used to hang out here

Blinking cool under a July sky

We used to dance to the faded blues

Of the hand-me-down grooves

Wearing nothing but the beat

The summer was all that we had to lose

In a room full of two fools

Love came easy

Love came sweet

Hey baby I wanna meet you down

At the Midnight Club again



There's a trumpet wailing the night away

Miles Davis '65

Sometimes a song can change the way you live

Give you strength to die alive



We used to dance to the faded blues

Of the hand-me-down grooves

Wearing nothing but the beat

The summer was all that we had to lose

In a room full of two fools

Love came easy

Love came sweet

Hey baby I wanna meet you down

At the Midnight Club again



In a perfect world we'd be on the floor

Before tonight is through

But no one is dancing except me and loneliness

Steps I wish I never knew



We used to dance to the faded blues

Of the hand-me-down grooves

Wearing nothing but the beat

The summer was all that we had to lose

In a room full of two fools

Love came easy

Love came sweet

Hey baby I wanna meet you down

At the Midnight Club

I wanna meet you down

At the Midnight Club

I'm gonna meet you down

At the Midnight Club again
