|
The morning is dead |
|
And the day is, too |
|
There's nothing left here to meet me |
|
But the velvet moon |
|
All my loneliness I have felt today |
|
It's like a little more than enough |
|
To make a man throw himself away |
|
And I continue |
|
To burn the midnight lamp |
|
Alone |
|
Now the smiling portrait of you |
|
Is still hangin' on my frowning wall |
|
But It really doesn't, really doesn't bother me |
|
Too much at all |
|
It's just the ever falling dust |
|
That makes it so hard for me to see |
|
That forgotten earring layin' on the floor |
|
Facing coldly towards the door |
|
And I continue |
|
To burn the midnight lamp |
|
Lord, alone |
|
Burn |
|
Lonely, Lonely, Lonely |
|
Loneliness is such a drag |
|
So here I sit and pace |
|
That same old fireplace |
|
Gives rise to the same old explosion |
|
Goin' through my mind |
|
And soon enough time me tell, |
|
About the circus and the wishing well |
|
And someone who will buy and sell for me |
|
Someone who will toll my bell |
|
And I continue |
|
To burn the same old lamp |
|
Lone |
|
Yeah |
|
Lightnin', can ya hear me callin' you? |
|
So lonely |
|
Gonna blow my mind |
|
Yeah, yeah |
|
Lonely lonely |
|
My my |
