I've seen the sun rise so many times,
In my rear view mirror as I was driving home.
And oh the night owls, good friends of mine;
I was always the last to leave, I always left alone.
Then I met you and my life was changed.
I guess my old friends might think it's kinda strange.
But I don't care if the party starts without me,
When the clock strikes twelve, drink a toast to this, old friend:
'Cos I'll be dreaming with my darling's arms around me.
And I don't care if I never see midnight again.
Now all my old friends, I've heard them say,
It won't be long before I get the urge to paint the town.
But things look different in the light of day,
You're the only one I wanna see when the sun goes down.
They might all think it's some great mystery,
If they had someone like you, they'd do the same as me.
Now I don't care if the party starts without me.
When the clock strikes twelve, drink a toast to this old friend.
'Cos I'll be dreaming with my darling's arms around me.
And I don't care if I never see midnight again.
I'll be dreaming with my darling's arms around me.
And I don't care if I never see midnight again.
