Dilly Cooner - Singin' in the Dark

I close my eyes
Turn the page mmm
Yesterday was yesterday
Still I read the notes
Feel the chords mmm
Underneath my fingertips
And I'll sing my song right through
The notes still ringing true
I'll put myself in the shoes
Of the girl who wrote this tune

And I'll remember what it felt like to be left up on the shelf
I'll be transported to a world with me and strings and no one else
And I'll remember all the times he broke my heart
Just pencil and paper, I'm singin' in the dark

Now I flip it over
Blank pages mmm
Today the feeling's new
Lost in confusion
I'm only human mmm
Sometimes it's just too much
Feelin' smothered by the world and overwhelming conversations
So I leave the present time and I slip into meditation
And the music flows

And I'll remember what it felt like to be left up on the shelf
I'll be transported to a world with me and strings and no one else
And I'll remember all the times he broke my heart
Just pencil and paper, I'm singin' in the dark

Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Oooooooh mmmm

And I'll remember what it felt like to be left up on the shelf
I'll be transported to a world with me and strings and no one else
And I'll feel the raw pain of my broken heart
Just pencil and paper, I'm singin' in the dark
Just pencil and paper, all I need to go far
Just pencil and paper, I'm singin' in the dark
