It's four in the morning the end of december |
| [00:31.480] |
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better |
| [00:37.930] |
New york is cold but I like where I'm living |
| [00:43.840] |
There's music on clinton street all through the evening |
| [00:51.640] |
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert |
| [01:03.490] |
You're living for nothing now I hope you're keeping some kind of record |
| [01:13.090] |
Yes and jane came by with a lock of your hair |
| [01:22.740] |
She said that you gave it to her |
| [01:28.690] |
That night that you planned to go clear |
| [01:39.490] |
Did you ever go clear |
| [01:44.290] |
Ah the last time we saw you you looked so much older |
| [01:50.940] |
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder |
| [01:57.350] |
You'd been to the station to meet every train |
| [02:02.850] |
And you came home without lili marlene |
| [02:08.900] |
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life |
| [02:23.350] |
And when she came back she was nobody's wife |
| [02:33.600] |
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth |
| [02:43.810] |
One more thin gypsy thief |
| [02:49.960] |
Well I see jane's awake -- |
| [03:00.360] |
She sends her regards |
| [03:31.560] |
And what can I tell you my brother my killer |
| [03:40.310] |
What can I possibly say |
| [03:44.020] |
I guess that I miss you I guess I forgive you |
| [03:50.070] |
I'm glad you stood in my way |
| [03:58.270] |
If you ever come by here for jane or for me |
| [04:07.970] |
Your enemy is sleeping and his woman is free |
| [04:20.780] |
Yes and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes |
| [04:31.930] |
I thought it was there for good so I never tried |
| [04:46.280] |
And jane came by with a lock of your hair |
| [04:54.780] |
She said that you gave it to her |
| [05:00.890] |
That night that you planned to go clear |
