Changed the lyrics according to the new "consensus" and what I hear.

The line "thought love was at midnight" is unclear. In the 2006 version it doesn't sound like she sings the first word, so it COULD be "lovers at midnight". But in later versions, there's a word there that sounds like "thought".

Also in later versions, she sings "you look" instead of "you looks" but I kept "looks".

In later version, the one syllable word in front starts with P, that much is clear. It really sounds like it ends with a K sound, not T. It sounds a lot like "puck". But I have no idea what "puck lovers at midnight" means. If it wasn't obvious (from her lips) that it starts with P, I would almost guess that she sings "fuck lovers...
