LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bernard Morris

(verse 1)
The midnight park is silent
The swings they do not swing
The children’s laughter has long faded
Birds no longer sing
A sadness fills the night air
The moon is in the sky
Reflecting in the tranquil pond
Where the night beetles fly

(chorus)
Nighttime it brings starlight kisses
On a blackened sky
Alone I walk through the park
And I break down and cry

(verse 2)
Stars they shine in darkness
Lighting up the night
Fireworks in velvet sky
Beautiful delight
Dreamy and poetic
Feels the night time park
All the nocturnal creatures
They come out in the dark

(chorus)
Nighttime it brings starlight kisses
On a blackened sky
Alone I walk through the park
And I break down and cry

(instrumental bridge)

(verse 3)
A park bench now stands empty
Lovers now gone home
Amongst the overflowing bins
Mice and rats they roam
Shadows stretch across the grass
Clouds roll by the moon
Trees they sway deep in the night
Morning will come soon

(chorus)
Nighttime it brings starlight kisses
On a blackened sky
Alone I walk through the park
And I break down and cry
Nighttime it brings starlight kisses
On a blackened sky
Alone I walk through the park
And I break down and cry
