They met at the station
on the outskirts of town
she was headed to school

he was nowhere bound
he needed directions
she gave him a smile

they struck a conversation
that lasted for miles
they hardly knew each other

when they both realized
they saw their own future in each other's eyes
IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT

LOST IN THE DARK
THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START

HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING
LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP

A RUNAWAY HEART
she called her Daddy long distance
when the sun came up

told him what had happened
heard him drop his coffee cup
hung up a cried a little

no longer Daddy's little girl
held the hand of her first love and headed out into the world
They didn't know where they were going

But they knew from now on
they'd never be without
each othernever be alone

REPEAT CHORUS
IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT
LOST IN THE DARK

THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START
HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING

LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP
A RUNAWAY HEART

SOLO
...Now,twentysome years later
she waits by the phone

her daughter calls from the station
says she's found a love of her own...
IN THE MIDDLE of THE NIGHT

LOST IN THE DARK
THEY FOUND WHAT THEY NEEDED
A BRAND NEW START

HEAD OVER HEELS INTO SOMETHING
LED ONLY BY A SPARK
THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN STOP

A RUNAWAY HEART
