I'm blue, and it's 2 in the morning
My heart like a jar, it has cracked without warning
It's true, my love, that it's closer to morning
And morning is Stranger Than The Night
I'm down and it's 7 'til sunrise
All that I want is to stare into your eyes
Bonnie Queen Blondie, your evening surprise
Is so sweet, so Stranger Than The Night
Give my impressions there upon your canvas
Darling, what have you to lose
I'm so sick of sitting here, staring at candles
And singing these sad sucker's blues
And I'm sad, cause it's 2 in the evening
And I can't stare at you, so I stare at the ceiling
Please don't be leaving, for you are my liebling
You're perfect, you're Stranger Than The Night
I knew, and I knew it beforehand
And here I thought I had the style and the score planned
Still, even still I am sinking in quicksand
It's deeper and Stranger Than The Night
All that can save me is your hand in mine
To never, no, never let go
Bring me back up to where that fat sun shines
And close up these eyes that won't glow
And I shake in the freezing cold
Let me come back, Let me come back
I quake in my boots
Lover, let me come in
I'm not in your party hold
Let me come back, Let me come back
I'm split from my roots
Lover, let me come in
Cause I'm Blue, and it's 9 in the morning
My face like a statue is stuck and is scorning
I'm through, yes, I'm through with my trying to score things
I'm grasping, I'm Stranger Than The Night
It's dawn, and it laughs at my troubles
For all that it cares I'm just blowing bubbles
I can't help but scratch at my seven-day stubble
It's subtle, it's Stranger Than The Night
It's noon, and I have a life waiting
And all of these joys I was anticipating
Are all drained of color, and I am left waiting
If waking is Stranger Than The Night
Now it's so formal, down to my socks
My life needs what your being has
You were my normal, you were my rock
Now I'm stuck playing tedious Jazz
