Midnight Hour

Talib Kweli · Other Songs - Talib Kweli

When I get home, unplug the phone

Turn out the lights, I serve this song



I'm gonna call my baby

Tell him that I'm coming

See, I been gone for way too long

He needs some lovin'



See last night on the phone

He told me that he missed me

And I listened to his song

It sounded kinda sexy



Check it out, I said, um, I said



My baby on the job, I know she's workin hard

She independent and I love that show, I swear to God

The way she get up, I know she ain't really got no fear

No, I don't make it rain, but still I'm the one that got her bed



I need her all at once, I been on tour for months

Her body like a stage, as soon as I hit, I tore it up

She love how I perform, come get a hype like her favorite song

We riders of the storm, touch me, baby, like the dawn



Ooh, said I just can't wait till the nighttime comes

And I see my baby

Ooh, said I just can't wait till the midnight hour

And I see my, I'll be home tonight, I'll be by his side



Listen, can't wait till the night begin, can't wait to let her in

Ready to handle this, the candle's lit, the light's is dim

So dark be inner vision and she might lose her and inhibitions

Hourglass figure make it last past ten

Four hours last long no inhibition



I'll come every once in a while

Just to let her know her love in town

I'm here to stay so there ain't no way

I know she love the sound of that



I'll make her love come down to earth

That's worth another round

Can't take another clown, in love with the kid

'Cause he underground



Ooh, said I just can't wait till the nighttime comes

And I see my baby

Ooh, said I just can't wait till the midnight hour

And I see my, I'll be home tonight, I'll be by his side



Listen, somebody call my baby, say I'm on the way now

See, I been going crazy thinking 'bout you late nights

The way my heart reacts it lets me know I need him

See, I been getting flashbacks, I just got to see him



Hopped out the taxicab, she almost didn't pay

He let me get your bags, I got some things to say

I know you miss me, girl, you know I miss you too

We kissing taking turns, so let's go to the room



Ooh, said I just can't wait till the nighttime comes

And I see my baby

Ooh, said I just can't wait till the midnight hour

And I see my, I'll be home tonight, I'll be by his side



Listen uh, when I get home, unplug the phone

Turn out the lights, I serve this song

He said when you get home, unplug the phone

The lights is off, you know it's on, know it's on



Ooh, that I made it home, baby, lock that door

And be ready for me

Ooh, and it's been some months and we don't have long

But I'm here now



I made it home tonight

I'll be by your side

Don't worry 'bout the time

I made it home tonight, listen, uh
