Lyrics
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say, "Everything's okay"
Bring me southern kisses from your room
Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say, "Everything's alright"
Let me smell the moon in your perfume
[Verse 1]
Oh, gods and years will rise and fall
And there's always something more
Lost in talk, I waste my time
And it's all been said before
While further down behind the masquerade the tears are there
I don't ask for all that much I just want someone to care
That's right now
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say, "Everything's okay"
Come on out beneath the shining sun
Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say, "Everything's alright"
Sneak on out beneath the stars and run, yeah
[Bridge]
Oh, yeah, yes
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
It's king and queen and we must go down now beyond the chandelier
Where I won't have to speak my mind and you won't have to hear
Shreds of news and afterthoughts and complicated scenes
We'll weather down behind the light and fade like magazines
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say, "Everything's okay"
Bring me southern kisses from your room
Hey, hey, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say, "Everything's alright"
Let me smell the moon in your perfume
[Chorus]
Oh, now, meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say, "Everything's okay"
Let me see you smiling back at me
Hey, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say, "Everything's alright"
Hold me tight and love and loving's free
[Outro]
Oh, yeah
