| I try to be patient, I try not to moan
|
| But it’s driving me crazy, tryin' to live here alone
|
| My conversation gets nowhere
|
| When I talk to myself
|
| I’ve lost my sense of humour
|
| Somewhere here on the shelf
|
| The moon is wasting its shine, shining on me
|
| Until I see you again
|
| I won’t be out in the moonlight
|
| Well I’ll be sleeping by ten
|
| The birds are wasting their songs, singin' to me
|
| Until I’m wakin' with you
|
| Until you’re back in my arms, dear
|
| The birds will have to find something better to do
|
| A shoulder to cry on would make me feel fine
|
| But it’s not much comfort when I’m cryin' all night
|
| Friends and relations
|
| Are running out of patience with me
|
| I keep myself to myself but I’m no company
|
| The moon is wastin' its shine, shinin' on me
|
| Until I see you again
|
| I won’t be out in the moonlight
|
| Well I’ll be sleepin' by ten
|
| The birds are wastin' their song, singin' to me
|
| Until I’m wakin' with you
|
| Until you’re back in my arms, dear
|
| The birds will have to find something better to do
