10,000 Midnights Ago.
Uptown At The Harlem Apollo,
You Sang A Long, Long Blues,
I Loved They Way You Worked Your Voodoo.

10,000 Midnights Ago.
I Wound Up My Watch Til The Spring Broke,
My My, Time Is So Unkind.
She Got Punch-drunk In The Moon-shine

Old New York, Tell Me The Truth,
You Know Her Better Than I Do,
I'm Just Another Hand-me-down.

10,000 Midnights Ago.
I Heard Your Voice, Not Your Echo.
Grand Central Valentine,
Tear My Heart Out On The Main Line.

10,000 Midnights Ago.
I Lived Just To Die In Your Shadow.
Black Satin Melody,
That's What I Heard When You Left Me.

Old New York, Tell Me The Truth,
You Know Her Better Than I Do,
I'm Just Another Hand-me-down.

10,000 Midnights Ago.
I Held Myself Back In The Front Row.
You Effect My Memory,
All Consuming Without Mercy.

10,000 Midnights Ago.
Worn Like A Black And White Photo,
I Stood Behind The Lens,
Took Your Portrait, Now I'm Forgotten.
