Lyrics for Torch Song

If I had known the graceful song I should know To slow down all the madness, I would have sung A whispered melody to calm you and keep you close But I don't know the tune It's a burden on my sorry soul I don't have a clue It's a weight upon my empty skull If I was soundly sleeping, I'd fall into dreams Night time's stale and restless, it's all wrong for me Night time's stale and restless, it's all wrong for me I don't know the tune It's a burden on my sorry soul I don't have a clue It's a weight upon my empty skull
