[Verse 1]
             
I came in from

Burnt out from

 the joy ride
           
She likes to r

 ashes anyway
             
Played from th

          
e bedside
             
Is "Stella By 

        
Starlight"

"That Was My H

eart"...
              
The drums that

   
 start off "Ni

ght And Day"

[Pre-Chorus 1]
           
The same kind 

       
of music haunt

Tell me who, a

The numbered l

overs of Duke 

Ellington
           
Do I owe each
