The morning breaks
Another heartbreak haze
A coffee cup of regrets
My last cigarette
Like the world goes round the sun goes down
I ain't got no choice
It's a melody in a summer breeze
Then I hear your voice
Ain't it the way of the whippoorwill
Singing a song bout the way I feel
Cryin' lonesome all alone
Reminding me he's gone
Fallin' apart with a broken heart that'll never heal
Ain't it the way of the whippoorwill
The pictures on the wall
Tell the story of it all
When time stood still
When love was really real
The memories the broken dreams make the teardrops start
A lonely tune and a risin' moon's just a prelude to the dark
Ain't it the way of the whippoorwill
Singing a song bout the way I feel
Cryin' lonesome all alone
Reminding me he's gone
Fallin' apart with a broken heart that'll never heal
Ain't it the way of the whippoorwill
