Tune emitting from my head
I play on my guitar
Sung it in the burned -out night
To a star

Just a sad sweet melody
I can't recall the words
But haunting like no song
I'd ever heard
I sing for lonely hearts
I sip my wine
Between the light and dark
Just passing time
I see the morning messenger
The paper hits the lawn
Is there news to tell me
Why she's gone
I sing for lonely hearts
I sip my wine
Between the light and dark
Just passing time

Tune emitting from my head
I play on my guitar
Sung it in the burned-out night
To a star
