She dries her eyes as she reaches for his photograph
Takes one last look as she tears it into two
Just sixteen she knows her heart's been broken
Tries to hide behind a smile that tells you she's no fool
I know you're crying inside
But there's no place to hide

Don't you know it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
It's so lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
You put your heart on the line
Baby tonight

She's read every glossy colour covered magazine
How boy meets girl they kiss and fall in love
Didn't know that she'd be flirting with disaster
Now she knows just what it's like to take a chance on love
I know you're crying inside
But there's no place to hide

Don't you know it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
Little girl it gets lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
You put your heart on the line
Baby tonight

You know it gets so lonely on the other side
You're gonna lose your heart
On the other side tonight

Little girl it gets lonely
On the other side of midnight
You're not the only one
On the other side of midnight
Don't you know it gets lonely, lonely
On the other side of midnight
Little girl you put your heart on the line
On the other side of midnight
