Duke Ellington — Theres a Lull in My Life

[Instrumental] [Verse 1] Oh, there's a lull in my life It's just a void and empty space When you're not in my embrace Oh, there's a lull in my life The moment that you go away There is no life, there is no day [Bridge] The clock stops ticking The world stops turning Everything stops but that flame in my heart That keeps burning, burning [Verse 2] Oh, oh, there's a lull in my life No matter how I may pretend I know that you alone can end The ache in my heart The hole in my arms The lull in my life
