Verse
I was sittin' in a bar on Lonely Street,
When I looked up and saw her I swear I almost spilled my drink,
She was firekillin' me with her heat
When I saw her walkin' 'cross that floor,
Big beautiful eyes and a smile worth dying for,
Like a model on a fashion runway
Half-Chorus
I saw love lights, after midnight,
When she sat right down next to me
I saw love lights
Verse
I asked her for her number and she gave in,
I called her up and asked her if she'd like to go out next weekend,
She didwe had dinner and went dancin',
I asked her to come home with me,
After hesitating for a moment she agreed,
And when I looked in her eyes before dawn
Full-Chorus
I saw love lights, after midnight,
In the dark with her lying next to me,
It felt so good, like real love should,
All wrapped up, making love seem so easy
I saw love lights
(Musical Pause)
Break-down Verse
It's been a couple of days since she moved on,
I'm feelin' like a miner who'd found his gold nugget and now it's gone,
But she had to go back to the country she called home
It's crazy but I can't erase,
The picture of her sweet, smiling face,
And I remember every time we kissed
Chorus
I saw love lights, after midnight,
When she cried and said she'd never be the same,
It felt so good, like real love should,
And that's why I'm sittin' on this plane
I saw love lights (after midnight)
I saw love lights (after midnight)
