Lyrics 40 Past Midnight - Ocean Colour Scene , Paul Weller , Jools Holland , Rico Rodriguez

Well I'm waitin' standin' on the corner
And it's comin' forty past the hour
In the midnight lonely freezin' hour
With my insides churnin' in the gutter
And I'm waitin' forty past midnight
Catchin' rain in the soda light
Won't you come and call me to your window?
Please don't leave me waitin' on the corner
We could have the best time
If you lighten up your life
With my pockets holey in the inside
With my bus ride rollin' in the gutter
But if you would only light your lamp light
Then I would be here than any other
Girl I'm waitin' forty past midnight
Catchin' cold in the pourin' rain
Won't you come and take me to your door
So I can take myself home again
We could have the best time
If you lighten up your life
When I'm waitin' standin' on the corner
And the soda light begins to flicker
And it's getting forty past the hour
And I think I won't see what I figure
Well I'm waitin' freezin' on the inside
Starin' up at your window pane
If you won't come see me this evenin'
I can see myself here again
But we could have the best days
If you lighten up your life
We could have the best time
If you lighten up your life
Ohh
