Their shadows danced closer on the honky tonk walls
As the band plays the last verse to that goin` home waltz
And they`ll start to peril `neath the parking lot moon
And some cars and a pickup won`t be picked up `til noon

Somewhere between midnight and daylight
It`s an after hours merry-go-round
Somewhere between midnight and daylight
There`s a whole lot of love lost and found

I wish I could say now that I`ve learned it all
From my observations as a fly on the wall
But if lonesome`s a crime oh, I`m guilty as sin
`Cause tomorrow I`ll pickup my ol` pickup again

Somewhere between midnight and daylight
It`s an after hours merry-go-round
Somewhere between midnight and daylight
There`s a whole lot of love lost and found
There`s a whole lot of love lost and found
