The Middle Of The Night Is My Cryin' Time

(album: Dean "Tex" Martin: Rides Again - 1963)

When you said goodbye I made up a lie told every one that I knew
Our love was not real so I played a field and that I never loved you
I put up a front and walked down the street foraging a smile at the time
And nobody knows I'm missing you so it's driving me out of my mind

The middle of the night is when I cry
The middle of the day is when I lie
Tell everyone that I'm doing fine
But the middle of the night is my crying time

All of our friends ask where I've been they haven't seen me around
I just give a wink and I'm hoping they think I've been out painting the town
Sometimes it seems alone in my dreams I'm holding you once again
When I awake it's so hard to take and that's when the teardrops begin

Oh the middle of the night is when I cry...
I put up a front and walked down the street...

The middle of the nigh is my crying time
The middle of the day is my lying time
I tell everyone that I'm doing fine
But the middle of the night is my crying time
(The middle of the nigh is his crying time)
The middle of the nigh is my crying time
The middle of the nigh is my crying time
