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 want to 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 want to 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 want to meet you down At the Midnight Club I want to meet you down At the Midnight Club I'm gonna meet you down At the Midnight Club again
