INTRO
This melting moon,
it has no clue.
Can someone tell me what to do.

ONE
I walk sad steps,
all on my own.  
There's so little light in our musty home.
I can't find a way.
Not one damn reason to stay.
I had a dream and I wished it true.
All those nites I dream of (for) you.
(But - now)Living with you, means I'm living all alone.
So I walk hard steps,
all on my own. 

CHORUS
No one lives on Memory Lane.    
They all drive past,  
most weep your (thaat) name.
On Memory Lane,
I dreamed of you.
On Memory Lane,
my wish came true.
Now I wonder what I (should) do.
Tell me, Why does lovin' (me) bother you?
Were your feeling ever true?
Why does lovin' bother you??

TWO
Hot words feed heavy scenes.
Your angry flow is now a stream (scream).  Who speaks these rules that shaped you cruel?
Drowning at the foot of your ocean.
I'm so tired of choking on your bitter potion.
You make devotion the (a) most bitter emotion.
(I'm) Drowning in your potion.
You make devotion the most tasteless  emotion.


BRIDGE
Trapped at the foot of your ocean. 
Chocking on your bitter emotions.
So many nights I dreamed of you.
now I don't know what to do.

THREE
When candles light musty minds,  
duress is all that gets to shine.     
It's midnite, so I plead my prayer.
There's no angel that would venture here.
Will someone tell me what to do
I can't find the joy in loving you.       
My midnite prayer, I plead alone.
Even God can't find (light) our home.
There's no light in our musty home.
So I cry sad words all on my own.
(Living with you can't beat living alone.)
So I walk sad steps all on my own.)
