[Verse 1]
Out here in the smokey places
Lookin' into those empty faces
Short waves say we made the dial
I'm wired for ten million miles

[Chorus]
Makin' midnight music
Singin' rock 'n' roll songs
Livin' midnight music
Just to get along

[Verse 2]
Back here in this cold hotel
I'm bored, but you can tell
Your smile said we did okay
I'm glad we had a chance to play

[Chorus]
Makin' midnight music
Singin' rock 'n' roll songs
Livin' midnight music
Just to get along

[Bridge]
From the plane, I see the back roads
Your twilight cities, your super towns
From the stage, I see the drifters
Lost souls who ain't been found
[Verse 3]
Out there in the five buck seats
We live inside your own heartbeats
We share the falls you take
Everything feels like it's about to break

[Chorus]
Makin' midnight music
Singin' rock 'n' roll songs
Livin' midnight music
Just to get along
Makin' midnight music
Singin' rock 'n' roll songs
Livin' midnight music

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
