burning of the midnightlamp - Jimi Hendrix

[00:28.00]The morning is dead and the day, is, too.
[00:34.00]The step is up here to meet me but the velvet fool.
[00:39.00]All my loneliness I have felt today.
[00:45.00]It s a little more than enough to make a man throw himself away.
[00:51.00]And I continue to burn the midnight lamp alone.
[00:59.00]
[01:18.00]Now the smiling portrait of you is still hanging on my frowning wall
[01:25.00]It really doesn t really doesn t bother me to watch at all
[01:31.00]It s just the ah ever falling love dust that makes it so hard for me to see
[01:38.00]that forgotten earring clear on the floor facing coolly the one at the door
[01:44.00]And I continue to burn the midnight lamp alone.
[01:51.00]
[01:59.00]Yeah yeah.
[02:05.00]Lonely lonely lonely.
[02:07.00]
[02:18.00]Loneliness is such a drag.
[02:23.00]
[02:37.00]So here I sit to face that same old fire place
[02:43.00]getting  ready for the same old explosion goin  through my mind.
[02:49.00]Yes, soon enough time will tell about the circus in the wishing well
[02:55.00]and someone who will buy and sell for me, someone who will tow my bail
[03:02.00]And I continue to burn the same old lamp alone
[03:09.00]
[03:12.00]Yeah midnight lamp,
[03:16.00]Can you hear me callin  you?
[03:19.00]So lonely. Gotta blow my mind
[03:23.00]Yeah, yeah. Lonely lonely.
