I've looked at you a thousand times and wondered what to say
The way I feel about you now, I don't know if I can take
Don't ask me what I'm thinking 'bout, 'cuz I'll just look away
'Til I say something foolish just to make you think I'm sane
'Cuz midnight fever is back
I just can't sleep anymore
Someone's takin' my time
And I'm telling you they just don't know
I'm tired thinkin' of why
I just can't be with her
And if she's worth all this time
'Cuz I don't think I'll let her go
You told me where your heart is
And you told me 'bout your plans
How you're thinkin' of leavin' and goin' away
To a place with a little more sand
Well I can't say that I disagree
But it seems you're holding back and you can't see that
Years from now you may believe
It was better that you loved and you lost somehow
'Cuz midnight fever is back
I just can't sleep anymore
Someone's takin' my time
And I'm telling you they just don't know
I'm tired thinkin' of why
I just can't be with her
And if she's worth all this time
'Cuz I don't think I'll let her go
I don't think I'll let her go
Been foolin' my heart
You know I can't take it
The way that your world's between phases
Now we're back at the start
And you know I can't change this
Only a fool's tale could save us
Midnight fever is back
Midnight fever is back
'Cuz midnight fever is back
I just can't sleep anymore
Someone's takin' my time
And I'm telling you they just don't know
I'm tired thinkin' of why
I just can't be with her
And if she's worth all this time
I think I gotta let her go
I think I gotta let her go
I think I gotta let her go
