Nocturno Hayes

Lyrics

(Words & Music by: Anthony J. Maldonado & Josh Copenhaver)

She says it's for the best
Still, my heart's in unrest.
At night I reach out for her
Dreaming of how things were.

As the day begins, she's not around
As I wait for her I wear a thorn-bush crown.

How can I tell her I care
When I'm not even there?
Hmmm, hmmm Life's unfair
Hmmm, hmmm Life's unfair.

I can't get her out of my mind
Even though she left me behind
Hmmm, hmmm Love's unkind
Hmmm, hmmm Love's unkind

I want the clowns to see the tears that I cry
But by the time they notice, I've been nullified.

I remember all the sweet words she said,
Now all those feelings are dead.
Hmmm, hmmm "My love is dead"
Hmmm, hmmm That's what she said.

She says I should move on
So now, I'm crawling along.
Hmmm, hmmm Love is gone
Hmmm, hmmm Love is gone.

I want the clowns to see the tears that I cry
But by the time they notice, I've been nullified.

I sit in the corner and mutter
Hmmm, hmmm "We're all in the gutter"
Hmmm, hmmm paruparupara
Hmmm, hmmm paruparupara

Hmmm, hmmm We're all in the gutter
Hmmm, hmmm We're all in the gutter
Hmmm, hmmm We're all in the gutter
Hmmm, hmmm We're all in the gutter
But some of us are looking at the stars.
