In The Midnight Hour Lyrics

I’m gonna wait till the midnight hour
That’s when my love comes tumbling down
I’m gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there’ no one else around

I’m gonna take you girl and hold you
Do all things I told you in the midnight hour
I’m gonna wait till the stars come out
See them twinkle in your eyes

I’m gonna wait till the midnight hour
That’s when my love begins to shine
You’re the only girl I know
Really love you so in the midnight hour

I always thought of it as a cracking song and its seen as one of the classics/standards. Then I heard that its actually about the guy waiting in a car with his girl on the eve of her 16th birthday, waitin for midnight, so then its legal for him to get his end away. Now reading the full lyric, I'd say it was correct.

Nasty. True. But, nasty.
