Lyrics

as i sit here on this curb, in the middle of the night, with my guitar in my hands, playing a lonely midnight song, a stranger approaches me and says, why do you play, and i answer him, this parking lot and, everyone else lies in its dark corners, and down it's dark alleyways, is my audience, and this song is for this night, and all that comes with it, and all that belongs to it, play for the stars, and the immobile cars, stray cats and telephone lines, the old dumpster bins, they will all receive me, will not turn me away, they will listen with kind ears, they will listen with kind ears, and i shiver in the cool air, my guitar echoes against the back of sleeping building, my faithful night still listens, and my faithful night still listens, play for the stars, and the immobile cars, stray cats and telephone lines, the old dumpster bins, they will all receive me, will not turn me away, they will listen with kind ears, they will listen with kind ears, they will listen with kind ears
