Burning
Of The Midnight Lamp
The morning
is dead and the day is too
There's
nothing left here to lead me, but the velvet moon
All my loneliness
I have felt today
It's 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
hanging on my frowning wall
It really
doesn't, it really doesn't bother me too much at all
It's just
the eh ever falling dust that makes it so hard for me to see
That forgotten
earring laying on the floor
Facing coldly
towards the door
And I continue
to burn the Midnight Lamp, all alone
Burn!
Yeah, yeah
Lonely,
lonely, lonely
Loneliness
is such a drag!
So here I
sit to face that same old fireplace
Getting
ready for the same old explosion
Going through
my mind
And soon
enough the time will tell
About the
circus in 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, alone
Yeah
Darling,
can you hear me calling you?
So lonely
Gotto blow
my mind
Yeah, yeah
Lonely,
lonely...
