At the stroke of midnight
Staring at the phone
For the millionth time I'm all alone

I'm the guy she turns to
When her lovers leave
I'm the wildcard
She's got up her sleeve
But she don't look at me

With eyes on fire
Glowing like coals in the night
Hungry eyes
Burning with love and desire

I'm like a long-lost brother
I'm closer than her friends
The only one on whom she can depend

She thinks I'm sweet and gentle
She thinks the world of me
But late at night I'm not the one she needs
She never looks at me

With eyes on fire
Glowing like coals in the night
Hungry eyes
Burning with love and desire

Don't she, don't you see
I'm crying out loud
Can't she tell I need her now

She never looks at me with
Eyes on fire
Glowing like coals in the night
Hungry eyes
Burning with love and desire

She never looks at me with
Eyes on fire
Glowing like coals in the night
Hungry eyes
Reaching for me in the night
