It's four in the morning, the end of December |
| [00:33.108] |
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better |
| [00:38.658] |
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living |
| [00:43.908] |
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening. |
| [00:51.78] |
Tell me you're building your house deep in the desert |
| [01:01.318] |
Are you living for nothing now, hope you're keeping some kind of record. |
| [01:10.858] |
Yes, Jane came by with a lock of your hair |
| [01:19.480] |
Said you gave it to her |
| [01:23.889] |
That night when you planned to go clear,OH |
| [01:32.947] |
Did you ever go clear? |
| [01:36.638] |
Well, the last time we saw you, you looked so much older |
| [01:42.188] |
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder |
| [01:47.428] |
Stood in the station and met every train |
| [01:52.668] |
But she never showed up I'm Lili Marlene |
| [01:58.579] |
And you treated some woman to a flake of your life |
| [02:10.299] |
When she got home she was nobody's wife. |
| [02:18.149] |
Yes, I see you there with a rose in your teeth |
| [02:27.599] |
One more thin gypsy thief |
| [02:32.969] |
Well I see Jane's awake |
| [02:41.149] |
She sends her regards. |
| [02:48.699] |
|
| [03:05.849] |
And what can I tell you oh what can I tell you |
| [03:11.29] |
What can I possibly say |
| [03:16.299] |
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you |
| [03:21.319] |
I'm glad that you stood in my way. |
| [03:27.629] |
And if you ever come by here, be it for Jane or for me |
| [03:36.109] |
I want you to know your enemy's sleeping |
| [03:41.99] |
I want you to know your woman is free. |
| [03:46.599] |
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes |
| [03:56.959] |
I thought it was there for good so we never really tried,OH. |
| [04:09.199] |
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair |
| [04:16.919] |
Said you gave it to her |
| [04:21.349] |
That night when you planned to go clear |
| [04:31.149] |
Sincerely, a friend |
