[Verse 1]
As far as all my friends can tell
I took her leaving well - that's kind of right
'Cause when I'm out with them
I don't let her memory rule the night
For the most part I'm okay
But I still miss her in a round-about way

[Chorus]
Around about the time that midnight rolls around
That's around about the time my tears start falling down
'Cause she's not around
I come unwound and my heart breaks
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way

[Verse 2]
I no longer sit alone for hours by the phone
Wishing she would call
And just the other day
I took her smiling face down off my wall
I've come a long long way
But I still miss her in a round about way

[Chorus]
Around about the time that midnight rolls around
That's around about the time my tears start falling down
'Cause she's not around
I come unwound and my heart breaks
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
[Outro]
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
