Twelve o'clock, You climb your stairs You turn the key And no one's there No one's there It's cold in bed And there's the phone It's on your wall And there's a note No one's called No one's called Ain't that small CHORUS But I can help you I can understand I can help you To your promised land I'm your helping hand Your midnight man You try to sleep But sleep won't come You lie awake And toss and turn Toss and turn And burn burn burn burn You read a book And try some food You have a smoke It ain't no good It ain't no good You remember CHORUS But I can help you I can understand I can help you To your promised land I'm your helping hand Your midnight man No need to be there Out on your own You've got my number You've got the phone Any time any day And I'll be on my way I'm at your window I'm at your door I'm on the ceiling I'm on the floor I'm coming I'm coming I'm coming Here I come CHORUS 'Cause I can help you I can understand I can help you To your promised land I'm your helping hand Your midnight man CHORUS I can help you I can understand I can help you To your promised land I'm your helping hand Your midnight man
