Midnight Robbery lyrics

I'll tell you how it happened

It was late one night

There was nothing anybody could do

I was standing alone with my defenses down

But I didn't know a killer was on the loose

Then I saw him; he was dressed in black

And I never knew I never ever should've turned my back

I was helpless; it was plain to see

I was the victim of the robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery

Ooh, and when he held me close

I surrendered helplessly

Well, I gave him my loving

And he promised he'd stay

But when I turned my head around

He made his getaway

Somebody stop that man

There's been a robbery

Flaming eyes and a chilling smile

And a devastating kind of charm

There was no doubt about it

There was no way out

'Cause this guy was very, very definitely undercover

He was so discreet

But it didn't take him long to knock me off my feet

In the midnight it was plain to see

I was the victim of the robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery

Oo, and when he held me close

I surrendered helplessly

Well, I gave him my loving

And he promised he'd stay

But when I turned my head around

He made his getaway

Somebody stop that man

There's been a robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery

Ooo, and when he held me close

I surrendered helplessly

Well, I gave him my loving

And he promised he'd stay

But when I turned my head around, he made his getaway

Somebody stop that man

Won't somebody help me?

This just can't be. There's been a robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery

He stole my heart in a midnight robbery...
