A Second to Midnight Lyrics

[Intro: Kylie Minogue]
Tick, tick

[Verse 1: Kylie Minogue]
Remember back in '99?
Oh, I
We danced like maniacs all night
Oh, I

[Refrain: Kylie Minogue]
Now the world is turnin' faster with time
And I'm slowly goin' outta my mind
Yeah, I, I think we're the same
Yeah, I think we're the same

[Pre-Chorus: Kylie Minogue]
And, oh, oh, where do we go, oh?
I gotta know, show me your page
'Cause the clock keeps ticking the tock
I ain't gonna stop, no how, no way

[Chorus: Kylie Minogue]
I'm chasin' after midnight
Show me the way to your heart
Ready for the start of my real life
To shine like a light in the dark
Waiting for this moment to work right for you
I'm done hesitatin', oh, yeah
Only got a second to midnight

[Post-Chorus: Olly Alexander]
(Show me the way to your heart)
Ooh

[Verse 2: Olly Alexander, Kylie Minogue]
I wonder if you question why
Oh, why
We left our fantasy behind
Oh, why? (Oh why?)

[Refrain: Olly Alexander, Both, Kylie Minogue]
Now the world is turnin' faster with time
And I'm slowly goin' out of my mind
Yeah, I (Oh, I), I think we're the same
Yeah, I think we're the same

[Pre-Chorus: Olly Alexander, Both]
And, oh, oh, where do we go, oh?
I gotta know, show me your page
'Cause the clock keeps ticking the tock
I ain't gonna stop, no how, no way

[Chorus: Both, Kylie Minogue, Olly Alexander]
I'm chasin' after midnight
Show me the way to your heart (Show me)
Ready for the start of my real life (Real life)
To shine like a light in the dark
Waiting for this moment to work right for you (Oh, yeah)
I'm done hesitatin', oh, yeah
Only got a second to midnight

[Bridge: Both, Olly Alexander]
So love, run
Freedom
Go on
Get some (Oh, get some)
Dig (Dig), deep (Deep)
Let (Let), go (Go)
Oh (Oh), oh (Oh)
Oh, yeah

[Chorus: Both, Olly Alexander, Kylie Minogue]
I'm chasin' after midnight (Hey, yeah)
Show me the way to your heart (Yeah, yeah)
Ready for the start of my real life (Real life)
To shine like a light in the dark (To shine)
Waiting for this moment to work right for you (I'm waitin')
I'm done hesitatin', oh, yeah
Only got a second to midnight

A Second to Midnight Q&A

What did Kylie Minogue & Olly Alexander say about "A Second to Midnight"?

I had a song which I loved, but I could never make it work. Kylie was listening to stuff for her record and she heard it and said, ‘Can I rewrite bits of it? Do you want to feature on it with me?’ It was the best day of my life! She’s such a pro, but she’s also a wonderful human.
