I had a lonely dream night
The dawn was silent blue
I was feeling all washed out
Thinking so much of you

A lonely night is a woman
That can’t make up her mind
As the summer does its buttons up
And drains your cup of time

My mind is like a coat hanger
With room enough for two
But with your comings and goings
It’s a hanger of the blues

If you should see me drifting
Through the portal of the deep black night
Please use your neglected torch
To shine a homecoming light

And guide me home
And guide me home
Use your forgotten torch
To guide me home
