The town has been put down to bed The cats are in the yard The lights are out on Tanglewood The fences stand on guard Against the rustling branches You can hear another sound The rumble of the trains that won't Be coming back to town Ring around the rosy The moon is red tonight The street lights and I whisper "goodnight, my love, goodnight." The store is on the corner The church is on the hill There's nothing in my wallet But a couple dollar bills the mouse is in the corridor the clothes are on the floor the milk comes every Friday they leave it at the door The wind will put the candles out So don't turn down the light The cold wind and I whisper "Good night, my love, good night" We're running out of apple juice The flowers ceased to grow The last farm in the county Was sold two years ago There's still a bit of coffee At the bottom of the glass The fire is in the fireplace The embers slowly pass Sing a song of winter when all the grounds are white The embers and I whisper "good night, my love, good night" The cracks are in the sidewalk The birds are on the line Far above the dirty ground The stars of Boston shine Every day I wake up And stumble down the stairs To find the last road out of town Has been closed for repairs So put your arms around me And close your eyes so tight Chicago and I whisper "goodnight, my love, good night" 11/00 Copyright 2000 by Adam Selzer, all rights reserved, ASCAP |
