Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The night approaches, after dark you have no chance
Ooh, when moonlight takes the sky, you'll feel my dark romance
I'm on your footsteps as I wait behind your back
I spread like fire upon the streets, I'm ready to attack
[PreChorus]
I'm the only thing you need
Upon your love I feed
[Chorus]
When the clock strikes midnight
I'm on the prowl of love
When the clock strikes midnight
Yeah, the time is right to call you out
[Verse 2]
When I'm feeling wicked and my blood is running hot
Electric is my touch, baby, you don't know what you've got
Only in the evening and at night I come alive
So try to keep your passion deep, I need it to survive
[PreChorus]
I'm the only thing you need
Upon your love I feed
[Chorus]
When the clock strikes midnight
I'm on the prowl of love
When the clock strikes midnight
Yeah, the time is right to call you out
[Chorus]
When the clock strikes midnight
When the wicked moon, it starts to rise
When the clock strikes midnight
You know I'm alive
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
When the clock strikes midnight
I'm on the prowl of love
When the clock strikes midnight
Yeah, the time is right to call you out
[Outro]
When the clock strikes midnight
When the wicked moon, it starts to rise
When the clock strikes midnight
You know I'm alive
