the burning of the midnight lamp - minnie riperton[00:00:01]
the morning is dead[00:00:36]
and the day is too[00:00:39]
there's nothing left here to greet me[00:00:42]
but the velvet moon[00:00:45]
all my loneliness[00:00:48]
i have felt today[00:00:51]
it's a little more than enough[00:00:54]
to make a man throw himself away[00:00:56]
and i continue[00:01:01]
to burn the midnight lamp[00:01:04]
alone[00:01:07]
now the smiling portrait of you[00:01:35]
is stll hangin' on my frowning wall[00:01:37]
but it really- really doesn't[00:01:41]
bother me- too much at all[00:01:43]
it's just the- uh- everfalling dust[00:01:46]
that makes it so hard for me to see[00:01:49]
that forgotten ear-ring laying on the floor[00:01:52]
facing coldly toward the door[00:01:54]
and i continue[00:01:59]
to burn the midnight lamp[00:02:02]
whoa, alone[00:02:05]
the morning is dead[00:03:29]
and the day is too[00:03:31]
there's nothing left here to greet me[00:03:35]
but the velvet moon[00:03:37]
all my loneliness[00:03:40]
i have felt today[00:03:43]
it's a little more than enough[00:03:46]
to make a man throw himself away[00:03:49]
and i continue[00:03:54]
to burn the midnight lamp[00:03:56]
alone[00:03:59]
