Lyrics The Walkmen

The Walkmen

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

No, I don't have a clue

It's a weight upon my empty skull

If I was soundly sleeping, I'd fall into dreams

But the night time's stale and restless, it's all wrong for me.

The 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

No I don't have a clue

A weight upon my empty skull.
