Lyrics

[00:25.20] It's four in the morning the end of December
[00:32.89] I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
[00:38.12] New York is cold but I like where I'm living
[00:44.80] There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening
[00:51.02] I hear that you're building
[00:54.34] your little house deep in the desert
[01:02.92] You're living for nothing now
[01:07.24] I hope you're keeping some kind of record
[01:12.79] Yes and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[01:22.46] She said that you gave it to her
[01:28.31] That night that you planned to go clear
[01:38.75] Did you ever go clear
[01:44.18] Ah the last time we saw you
[01:47.43] you looked so much older
[01:50.24] Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[01:56.25] You'd been to the station to meet every train
[02:03.25] And you came home without Lili Marlene
[02:08.09] And you treated my woman
[02:13.79] to a flake of your life
[02:21.68] And when she came back she was nobody's wife
[02:30.95] Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
[02:41.40] One more thin gypsy thief
[02:47.74] Well I see Jane's awake --
[02:56.48] She sends her regards
[03:14.01] And what can I tell you my brother my killer
[03:20.59] What can I possibly say
[03:26.18] I guess that I miss you
[03:29.93] I guess I forgive you
[03:32.95] I'm glad you stood in my way
[03:39.13] If you ever come by here for Jane or for me
[03:50.10] Your enemy is sleeping and his woman is free
[03:59.27] Yes and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes
[04:10.51] I thought it was there for good so I never tried
[04:23.33] And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[04:32.24] She said that you gave it to her
[04:38.09] That night that you planned to go clear
[04:48.20] Sincerely,
[04:49.80] L.Cohen.
