Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Baby, I'm a midnight lover
Baby, I'm a midnight lover
[Verse 1]
Like a rocket flashing in the night
Leave a message, baby, now I'm out of sight
Hang on to myself, I'm hunting for a feeling
[Pre-Estribillo]
A big game
On my mind
I'm clubbing round the midnight
Looking for love
Like I'm dancing in the wind tonight
[Estribillo]
Baby, I'm a Midnight Lover
Burning out your secret desire
Wanna be your Midnight Lover
Lighting up the stars with your fire
Baby, I'm a Midnight Lover
Turning on your secret desires
Gotta be your Midnight Lover
Wake up for the night is on fire
[Verse 2]
An emotion smashing up my brain
Like a secret longing driving me insane
Just gotta go now, still looking for a feeling
