Burning of The Midnight Lamp Lyrics

Send "Burning of The Midnight Lamp" Ringtone to your Cell

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
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

I continue
To burn the midnight lamp
Lord, alone

Loneliness is such a drag

So here I sit to face
That same old fire place
Gettin' ready for the same old explosion
Goin' through my mind
And soon enough time will tell,
About the circus in the wishing well
And someone who will buy and sell for me
Someone to toll my bell

But I continue
To burn the midnight lamp
Lord, alone
Darlin' can't ya hear me callin' you?
So lonely
Gonna have to blow my mind
Lonely

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  
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  
  
I continue  
To burn the midnight lamp  
Lord, alone  
  
Loneliness is such a drag  
  
So here I sit to face  
That same old fire place  
Gettin' ready for the same old explosion  
Goin' through my mind  
And soon enough time will tell,  
About the circus in the wishing well  
And someone who will buy and sell for me  
Someone to toll my bell

To burn the midnight lamp  
Lord, alone  
Darlin' can't ya hear me callin' you?  
So lonely  
Gonna have to blow my mind  
Lonely
