The moonlight drips like honey sweet
Casting shadows on empty streets
A saxophone whispers in the air
Lonely hearts but the rhythm's rare
Oh the night it sways and it bends
With melodies that never end
Wrap me in that velvet sound
Let my soul drift unbound
Fingers dance on ivory keys
A lover's sigh carried by the breeze
Every note paints tales untold
Stories of heartache fierce and bold
Oh the night it sways and it bends
With melodies that never end
Wrap me in that velvet sound
Let my soul drift unbound
A trumpet calls to the grieving sky
Stars hum back they can’t say why
Crescendo builds then softly falls
Life and love within the walls
Feet shuffle slow on worn-out floors
Echoes whisper through hidden doors
There’s fire in each gentle sway
Keeping the shadows of sorrow at bay
