Written by Don Hecht and Alan Block

(First recorded by Patsy Cline November 8, 1956.

Also recorded August 25, 1961.)

I go out walkin' after midnight

Out in the moonlight

Just like we used to do

I'm always walkin' after midnight searchin' for you

I walk for miles along the highway

Well, that's just my way

Of sayin' I love you

I'm always walkin' after midnight, searchin' for you

CHORUS:

I stop to see a weepin' willow

Cryin' on his pillow

Maybe he's cryin' for me

And as the skies turn gloomy

Night winds whisper to me

I'm lonesome as I can be

I go out walkin' after midnight

Out in the moonlight*

Just hopin' you may be

Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight, searchin' for me

REPEAT CHORUS

REPEAT LAST VERSE
