Keith Urban - Romeo's Tune

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Bring me southern kisses from your room

Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Let me smell the moon in your perfume

Oh, Gods and years will rise and fall
And there's always something more
It's lost in talk, I waste my time

And it's all been said before

While further down behind the masquerade the tears are there
I don't ask for all that much I just want someone to care
That's right now

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Come on out beneath the shining sun

Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Sneak on out beneath the stars and run

Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah

It's king and queen and we must go down now beyond the chandelier
Where I won't have to speak my mind and you won't have to hear
Shreds of news and afterthoughts and complicated scenes
We'll huddle down behind the light and fade like magazines

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Bring me southern kisses from your room

Hey hey, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Let me smell the moon in your perfume

Oh now, meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Let me see you smiling back at me

Hey, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Hold me tight and love and loving's free

Woah yeah

What a fabulous sound. I always loved the Steve Forbert version but Keith's is great too. I always worry that others won't do it justice but he's made a great song sound like it should.

I like that the piano riff is preserved intact and that the drums become a nice "live rock" sound after that synthetic opening. I still like Forbert's vocal more but it does sound like Keith really likes this song, which is good taste on his part.

[Henryep10]

Nice version, but I prefer Forbert's raspier vocals on this tune.....

[artboy789]

Keith re-recording this song just re-enforces what a fucking great song Forbert wrote!

[amyww]

Original vocals are definitely more interesting. I like the arrangement that KU did.

[uflip06]

Original way better. Sounds purer to me. This is sounds commercial.

[mrpicky510]

A good song to get one's ass beat to

[jjmc00]

horrible compared to the original, but the song is good regardless

[Elliecat07]

One of the happiest songs ever..... :o)

meet me in the middle of the day, let me hear say every thing's ok

bring me southern kisses from your room....
