Sounds a bit like Crosby, Stills & Nash later on........

lyrics

Pride of many long, drawn nights
Waiting, tired
Praying she’ll be here around half-nine

I look on an empty stair - I look on an empty stair

Tried to make the time go wild
Killing time
An inhumane way to grind it down

I look on an empty stair - I look on an empty stair

Gust of a summer’s tail end raps the window sill
Dust from a waiter’s hairstyle floats on the whisky spill
Plans and women all get laid
A long way from my grasp
What is now?
You may well ask......

Cried a silent banshee cry
A look-alike
Walks in the hallway – I don’t know why

I look on an empty stair - I look on an empty stair

Stride away from candlelight
Feeling fine
All that I feel isn’t fly-by-night

I look on an empty stair - I look on an empty stair

Gust of a summer’s tail end raps the window sill
Dust from a waiter’s hairstyle floats on the whisky spill

I look on an empty stair
I look on an empty stair……………
