Spill Canvas - 10,000 Midnights lyrics

10,000 midnights ago Uptown at the Harlem Apollo You sang a long, long blues I loved the 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 him better than I do I know I'm not the one for you 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 him better than I do I know I'm not the one for you I'm just another hand-me-down 10,000 midnights ago I held myself back in the front row You affect 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
