Lonely nights and empty bars
Counting wishes on falling stars
The city's hum is a lonesome tune
Waiting for a love that left too soon
Oh the night sings a blue serenade
Lost in the echoes of choices we made
I'm dancing with shadows sipping on wine
Searching for traces of love left behind
Neon signs flicker a soft broken glow
Like memories fading yet refusing to go
The saxophone weeps a sorrowful sound
In this quiet city where lost things are found
Oh the night sings a blue serenade
Lost in the echoes of choices we made
I'm dancing with shadows sipping on wine
Searching for traces of love left behind
The clock keeps ticking each moment a sigh
Whispers of yesterday like smoke in the sky
We're just two hearts on different streets
Playing the game that nobody beats
Oh the night sings a blue serenade
Lost in the echoes of choices we made
I'm dancing with shadows sipping on wine
Searching for traces of love left behind
Midnight's a river that carries me slow
Through dreams of a past that I used to know
Your laughter's a ghost that lingers too long
Caught in the verses of this unfinished song
Oh the night sings a blue serenade
Lost in the echoes of choices we made
I'm dancing with shadows sipping on wine
Searching for traces of love left behind
The clock keeps ticking each moment a sigh
Whispers of yesterday like smoke in the sky
We're just two hearts on different streets
Playing the game that nobody beats
The clock keeps ticking each moment a sigh
Whispers of yesterday like smoke in the sky
With each note of jazz I'll raise a toast
To the memories we cherish and the ones we miss the most
With every step with every sway
We dance with the shadows of yesterday
