11:60 P.M., 11:60 P.M.
The clock was strikin'
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11:60 P.M.
The Moon was high in the sky
You had that look in your eye
I tried to kiss you
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 hundred times
We had spent the evening walkin' around the block
It was grand to wind up closer together than 12 o'clock
I gotta see you again
And hold you close to me when
The clock is strikin'
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11:60 P.M.
11:60 P.M., 11:60 P.M.
Goodnight!
