Quarter to Midnight Lyrics
Well the water’s rising up,
Current knocks you to your knees.
And everybody that we know
Set their anchors to the flow.
Now your sister’s got a kid,
And she says we should get one, too.
And put our bodies to the work
Of making something of the hurt.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
Pack a little suitcase, lace up your shoes.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
I don't want to live for nobody but you.
Well I waited there for hours,
'Til the sun it blushed the sky.
A bottle fell off of a truck,
And something deep I shut it up.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
Pack a little suitcase, lace up your shoes.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
I don't want to live for nobody but you.
We were born for walking on the river,
Not for life under water.
Lay your hand in mine
Current knocks you to your knees.
And everybody that we know
Set their anchors to the flow.
And she says we should get one, too.
And put our bodies to the work
Of making something of the hurt.
Pack a little suitcase, lace up your shoes.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
I don't want to live for nobody but you.
'Til the sun it blushed the sky.
A bottle fell off of a truck,
And something deep I shut it up.
Pack a little suitcase, lace up your shoes.
Meet me on the corner quarter to midnight.
I don't want to live for nobody but you.
Not for life under water.
Lay your hand in mine
