Late on Christmas eve
In the street alone
Outside a house on the pavement stone

I sang to her
as it's sung together
How many nights I felt her tether

She would not heed what I melodied
In my soul's sore need;
she would not heed.

As I bent me up there
I voiced and I fingered
Upon the strings long long I lingered

Only the curtains hid from her
One whom Caprice had bid from her

She did not come and my heart grew numb
And dull my strum
she did not come

Sick I withdrew
At love's grim hue
Finally she knew
sick I withdrew

Sick I withdrew
At love's grim hue
Finally she knew
sick I withdrew

Sick I withdrew
At love's grim hue
Finally she knew
sick I withdrew
