Tonight the loneliness came knocking at my door
I could hear its ghostly whisper telling me I am all-alone
I hear its shoveling footsteps stepping into my soul
And I could feel its hungry fingers searching for my heart to hold
And it sing me a song of people everywhere
People living in cages only loneliness to share

CHORUS

But there is a memory; she’s a melody of mine
And she breaks through my walls makes all her treasures mine
Some call me lucky, some never call me at all
But I call her friend, she feed my soul
She takes me by the hand, and kisses me good-night
She shows me the stars, and sings a lullaby

CHORUS

I stroll down the lane Of the vanity insane
When I lay on my bed Sound a whistle in my head
How can I explain to, like the living dead
It come in the night When all the world sleep snug tight

CHORUS
