Lyric Midnights Gone

(Terri Clark/Gary Burr)

We got our first McDonald s
And it made the headline news
In a town where no one locks their doors at night
All the lights are flashing yellow
We just roll right through
And there is not a superstore in sight
But there s more to life
I told myself I d say good-bye
By the time the clock struck twelve

But I can t pull the trigger on that changing world out there
With all these dreams I can t believe I m still standing here
It s time to face the fact that I m not the rebel that I thought
Cause midnights gone but I m not

Everyone I run into
Has known me all my life
There are no secrets you can call your own
Since the age of seventeen
I ve faced the morning light
Saying this day is the day I m gonna go
All I have to do is drive away
But the things that make me crazy
Always make me stay

But I can t pull the trigger on that changing world out there
With all these dreams I can t believe I m still standing here
It s time to face the fact that I m not the rebel that I thought
Cause midnights gone but I m not

It s time to face the fact I m not the rebel that I thought
Cause midnights gone, midnights gone
but I m not
