Down at the neon angel beneath a flashing star A rag tag congregation is gathered at the bar Searching for salvation for just an hour or two While the jukebox in the corner, plays the blues It's midnight communion, down on Second Avenue They take the wine 'til closing time, a fellowship of fools Confessions heard, forgiveness given from twelve o'clock 'til two It's midnight communion down on Second Avenue There's one old fallen angel, who's lost the will to fly But her broken wings still have the strength to hold you when you cry Lord knows, it's not the best place to lay my burdens down But someone's always good for one more round It's midnight communion, down on Second Avenue They take the wine 'til closing time, a fellowship of fools Confessions heard, forgiveness given from twelve o'clock till two It's midnight communion down on Second Avenue
