Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
I'm sittin' on the corner with my guitar
And these passing cars, they won't slow down
Their headlights blur into a stream of light
As I'm strumming chords, lost in the sound
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
I'll get no sleep tonight, with you drifting in my head
You're always in my head, haunting my bed
Your laughter echoes through the night so clear
A ghostly whisper that I hold so dear
I called you up so you could hear my song, our story
A melody that's woven from our past and glory
And I know you will live your life like you never knew me
But I can't forget the way we used to be
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
Well, on the corner, they all sing along
To the tune of my heartache, where you belong
Oh, the melody is not strong, but it's there
A fitting symphony of our love affair
These sidewalk blues have still got me thinking of you
With every step I take, feels like I'm walking in your shoes
The streetlights flicker, casting shadows that only fade
Just like the memories of the love we made
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh
I called you up so you could hear my song, our story
A bittersweet reminder of our faded glory
And I know you will sleep tonight like you never knew me
But in my dreams, you're the only one I see
I called you up so you could hear my song, our story
A melody that's heavy with our love and worry
And God knows that you will go on and pretend that you don't know me
But in the silence of the night, I hope you still hear me
