Somewhere After Midnight (Gene Clark/Rick Clark/Robinson)


Somewhere after midnight
Somewhere before noon
Looked out on the horizon and saw the risin' moon

Heard a train whistle blowin'
In the back of my brain
Said that yesterday the clouds were coverin'
And they expected rain

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time carrying on
If we don't get ourselves together
We're gonna be a long time gone

I am not a warrior
I am not a pacifist
I'm firmly planted in middle America
Just trying to do my best

But when an international storm
Threatens my home or family
There's nothin' in this life that will stop me
From defending my liberty

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time carrying on
If we don't get ourselves together
We're gonna be a long time gone

Oh it's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time carrying on
If we don't get ourselves together
We're gonna be a long time gone
