There’s a melody I hear when I turn out my light

It’s a haunting sound that lingers in the night

It plays for a minute, an hour, or more

This is not a tune I have heard before

But if I open my eyes to find the song

It softens, stops, and then it’s gone

Left only to imagine, this tune in my head

As I lie here, humming, awake in my bed
