The Burning Of The Midnight Lamp歌词完整版
the burning of the midnight lamp - minnie riperton
the morning is dead
and the day is too
there's nothing left here to greet 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 stll hangin' on my frowning wall
but it really- really doesn't
bother me- too much at all
it's just the- uh- everfalling dust
that makes it so hard for me to see
that forgotten ear-ring laying on the floor
facing coldly toward the door
and i continue
to burn the midnight lamp
whoa, alone
the morning is dead
and the day is too
there's nothing left here to greet 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
