Burning of the Midnight Lamp - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

作词：Jimi Hendrix

作曲：Jimi Hendrix

The morning is dead and the day is too

The step is up here to meet me but the velvet fool

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 really doesn't bother

me to watch at all

It's just the ah ever falling love dust that

makes it so hard for me to see

That forgotten earring clear on the floor

facing coolly the one at the door

And I continue to burn the midnight lamp alone

Yeah yeah

Lonely lonely lonely

Loneliness is such a drag

So here I sit to face that same old fire place

Getting' ready for the same old explosion

goin' through my mind

Yes soon enough time will tell about the

circus in the wishing well

And someone who will buy and sell for me

someone who will tow my bail

And I continue to burn the same old lamp alone

Yeah midnight lamp

Can you hear me callin' you

So lonely Gotta blow my mind

Yeah yeah Lonely lonely
