[Verse 1]
While others sleep, oh, baby
Well, we tip-toe through the night
Doin' things in the dark
Oh, we wouldn't do in the light, no
You got to be home by twelve, yeah
And I've got to get you there
So we ain't got a minute to spare
[Chorus]
It's got to be non-stop to midnight
Gotta be non-stop to midnight, baby
[Verse 2]
I wonder if you can tell me this
Has it seemed to you lately
Nights ain't been long enough? No
With so little time, darling
How in the world can we do so much?
I know I've got to have you home, yeah
But 'til then, I've got you all alone
As long as I know you're my own
[Chorus]
It's gonna be non-stop to midnight
Non-stop to midnight, baby, ha
[Post-Chorus]
(Non-stop to midnight) It's hot out tonight
And еverything's right, let's make it
(Non-stop to midnight) Non-stop to midnight
[Verse 3]
Wе get behind the park bench
We get behind the tree
We're gonna find the only spot
Where can't nobody see
'Cause you know if your friends saw
You know what they would say
"Ain't it a shame?"
"Ain't it a disgrace?"
Long as we keep it a secret
As long as we don't say, no
What they don't know won't hurt them
Anyway, no, oh no
[Chorus]
Non-stop to midnight
Non-stop to midnight, baby, ha
[Post-Chorus]
(Non-stop to midnight) Don't worry 'bout your daddy
He ain't got no business bein' up this time of night no way
(Non-stop to midnight) Oh no
(Non-stop to midnight) And don't worry 'bout your mama
She supposed to be with your daddy (Non-stop to midnight)
You supposed to be with me
[Outro]
We can make it non-stop to midnight
Non-stop to midnight, baby
