[Verse 1] I walk past the rowhouse steps With my hands in my coat One cheesesteak wrapped in foil And a half-spoken joke The train shakes the corner Like it knows my name But I got one empty chair And the same old game [Pre-Chorus] So I keep my chin up When the wind cuts through Counting tile-floor echoes In the Wawa queue [Chorus] Philly after midnight Philly after midnight I’m all by myself tonight But I still move right Philly after midnight Philly after midnight One more block, one more light Then I’m outta sight [Verse 2] At the diner on South Street I sip that burnt coffee Couple kids in the booth laugh Like the night won’t leave I flip my coin for the meter Let it fall, let it go Even lonely got a rhythm When the brass winds blow [Pre-Chorus] So I lift my collar Let the brass cut through If nobody’s beside me I got me and you [Chorus] Philly after midnight Philly after midnight I’m all by myself tonight But I still move right Philly after midnight Philly after midnight One more block, one more light Then I’m outta sight [Bridge] [Horn break] I hear the city breathing Under window glass Every empty avenue Still knows how to dance [Final Chorus] Philly after midnight Philly after midnight I’m all by myself tonight But I still move right Philly after midnight Philly after midnight One more block, one more light Then I’m outta sight Philly after midnight Philly after midnight I’m all by myself tonight But I still move right
