I came to Indiana
when I was 32
I didn’t know anyone but you
I got off of the bus
with the one bag I could bring
plus the cash I got for the ring
You were waiting at the station
with a Thermos & some flowers
I knew your jacket from your picture

The streets were so empty
you’d think it was the rapture
Our midnight world
Just me & you

I moved into your apartment
It was comfortable for two
You let me paint the bedroom blue
I started working at the bar
You would drive me in your car
& you’d come pick me up too

Headlights down deserted roads
looked like a lunar landscape
Our midnight world
Just me & you

Jesse gave me the divorce
when I was 34
I just can’t see the kids anymore
That night after closing
we opened up some good champagne
& we slow danced across the floor

That night the radio played Moon River
in our midnight world
for me & you
