about

Originally an outtake from the Autumn Skies EP, I re-recorded this version from scratch with the help of Daniel Kang on drums and lead guitar and Amanda M. on supporting vocals. Don't forget to check out the original demo (www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXnyxBhqTEo) and the Autumn Skies out-take (www.youtube.com/watch?v=1prUcaUhfX4) versions on YouTube.

lyrics

midnight is almost over honey
and there's nothing to be done
midnight is almost over honey
i think you're the only one

waiting for the band to start
we walked across the street
we split a slice of pizza
and we found a bench to sit
and you looked at me
like you kinda wanted to kiss me
i thought it could've been
this stupid heart trying to trick me
i thought you just saw something
really funny on my face
i could've missed a spot
when i tried to shave that day
you could've started up
a staring contest without me
anyway the moment passed
and you never kissed me
we got back, the band began
and i never kissed you
in retrospect i kinda think
i might've missed my cue

midnight is almost over honey
and there's nothing to be done
midnight is almost over honey
i think you're the only one

and later on on that week
i asked if you were not busy
you said you were and i think
that you might've lied to me
we never spoke again
and then i tried to explain it
i found a couple reasons
why our love never made it
maybe it's the glasses
and you like men with vision
maybe you like tall men
and i'm only five seven
maybe you are insecure
and thought i would kiss you
if only you were pretty
as the dolls your mom bought you
maybe i'm too shy
and you just lost all your patience
hope that maybe some of this
could make at least some sense

midnight is almost over honey
and there's nothing to be done
midnight is almost over honey
i think you're the only one

(instrumental break)

midnight is almost over honey
and there's nothing to be done
midnight is almost over honey
i think you're the only one
