[Куплет 1] I took the long way home Past the bodega glow Steam on the laundry cart Spilled out on the curb Your name in my mouth Like a coin in my cheek Every red old hatchback Making me think [Алдынғы қайырма] And the avenue bends Like it knows my mood I keep circling back Where i lost you [Қайырма] Midnight gridlock Don’t let me go Midnight gridlock Take me slow I keep rolling Back to your door Midnight gridlock One more block [Куплет 2] A kid in a knit cap Pours out a soda Taxi doors slam Then the alley goes quiet I pass the closed deli The one with the bell And the rain on the glass Says it all by itself [Алдынғы қайырма] And the avenue bends Like it knows my mood I keep circling back Where i lost you [Қайырма] Midnight gridlock Don’t let me go Midnight gridlock Take me slow I keep rolling Back to your door Midnight gridlock One more block [Көпір] If i park for a second I might hear the truth But the engine keeps talking In a low steady groove So i follow the hush Of the empty blocks Till your window appears And my heart gets caught [Қайырма] Midnight gridlock Don’t let me go Midnight gridlock Take me slow I keep rolling Back to your door Midnight gridlock One more block
