It must be midnight somewhere
But here it's three AM
Slipping into silence
Or crying out instead

Why won't you beleve me
When I speak the truth?
It's not that you don't want to
It's not that you refuse

You could choose your people
Your friends and family
Your world as you know it
Or you could choose, You could choose,
You could choose to be free

When you reach your heaven
Never look back
Taste every pleasure
Find what you're looking for

The TV turns you over
You know it's happened again
See the same old faces
They'll be there at the end

I see the same faces
And wonder if it's you
Lying in the rubble
Of what you had to lose

It must be midnight somewhere
But it's daybreak soon
You'll hear the milkman whistle
But you will never, you will never,
You will never call the tune
