Walkin' After Midnight
Original lyrics by Alan Block and Donn Hecht
Performed by Patsy Cline
~~*~~
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
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 starlight, just hoping you may be
Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for me
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 starlight, just hoping you may be
Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight
Searchin' for me

Flirty, sexy, and sad.
It was used a lot in the TV series Lost,
for Kate's character,
and which describes her perfectly as well.
It manages to lift you up and put a smile
on your face while going on about
losing someone you love.
It's odd in that way,
but by no means unique.
