  • Say a prayer, close the light, thumb upon a scale
    The pillow is cold, that ship has sailed
    Time has run the river dry, dry as a twisted trail
    Into the bone, I'm into it

    Ever get the feeling nothing else will do
    I could hear you singing, painting her blue
    Was the joke revealing, did you write your name?
    On a dirty ceiling I can't explain

    I need medicine at midnight
    But it ain't no cure
    Medicine at midnight calling
    But it ain't no cure
    I may be sick but you know I'm yours

    I remember dancing hard under the dead moon
    Howling with you howling

    Ever get the feeling nothing else will do
    I could hear you singing
    I can't explain

    I need medicine at midnight
    But it ain't no cure
    Medicine at midnight howling
    But it ain't no cure
    I may be sick but you know I'm yours

    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes
    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes
    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes
    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes
    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes

    Medicine at midnight
    But it ain't no cure
    Medicine at midnight howling
    But it ain't no cure
    I may be sick but you know I'm yours

    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes
    Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes Writer/s: Chris Shiflett, David Grohl, Georg Ruthenberg, Nate Mendel, Odie Hawkins, Rami Jaffee
