Stopped by your house, saw your lamp lit
Not a sign of you in it
Where could you go at this hour?
Has all our love lost its power?
I said I’d be here with a flower
Streetlamps flutter like fireflies
I wish I hadn’t a told you all of those love lies
Where could you go at this hour?
Has all our love lost its power?
I miss you more hour by hour
The roses seem to smell sour
Streetlamps flutter like fireflies
I wished I hadn’t a told you all of those love lies
Stopped by your house, saw your lamp lit
Not a sign of you in it
Flutterlamps flutter like fireflies
I wish I hadn’t a told you all of those love lies
Oh, all of those love lies
(1976)
