Well the smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street |
| [00:09.73] |
And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws |
| [00:14.55] |
And you're east of East Saint Louis and the wind is making speeches |
| [00:20.14] |
And the rain sounds like a round of applause |
| [00:26.13] |
And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon |
| [00:31.00] |
His invisible fiancee's in the mirror |
| [00:36.44] |
And the band is going home,it's raining hammers,it's raining nails |
| [00:42.38] |
And it's true there's nothing left for him down here |
| [00:47.86] |
And it's time time time,and it's time time time |
| [00:58.53] |
And it's time time time that you love |
| [01:04.57] |
And it's time time time |
| [01:10.92] |
And they all pretend they're orphans and their memory's like a train |
| [01:15.95] |
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away |
| [01:21.38] |
And the things you can't remember tell the things you can't forget |
| [01:26.96] |
That history puts a saint in every dream |
| [01:32.45] |
Well she said she'd stick around until the bandages came off |
| [01:37.63] |
But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit |
| [01:43.07] |
And Mathilda asks the sailors "Are those dreams or are those prayers?" |
| [01:47.48] |
So close your eyes,son,and this won't hurt a bit |
| [01:54.85] |
Oh it's time time time,and it's time time time |
| [02:20.92] |
Well things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl |
| [02:25.79] |
The boys just dive right off the cars and splash into the street |
| [02:31.68] |
And when they're on a roll she pulls a razor from her boot |
| [02:37.47] |
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet |
| [02:42.14] |
So put a candle in the window and a kiss upon his lips |
| [02:47.68] |
As the dish outside the window fills with rain |
| [02:53.16] |
Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart |
| [02:59.71] |
And pay the fiddler off 'til I come back again |
