Well the smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street |
| [00:09.02] |
And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws |
| [00:14.12] |
And you're east of East Saint Louis and the wind is making speeches |
| [00:19.68] |
And the rain sounds like a round of applause |
| [00:25.73] |
And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon |
| [00:30.69] |
His invisible fiancee's in the mirror |
| [00:36.10] |
And the band is going home, it's raining hammers, it's raining nails |
| [00:41.83] |
And it's true there's nothing left for him down here |
| [00:45.97][03:25.00] |
And it's time time time, and it's time time time |
| [00:57.98][02:03.83][03:13.20][03:35.89] |
And it's time time time that you love |
| [01:03.99][02:09.34][03:19.74][03:42.12] |
And it's time time time |
| [01:10.24] |
And they all pretend they're orphans and their memory's like a train |
| [01:15.36] |
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away |
| [01:20.78] |
And the things you can't remember tell the things you can't forget |
| [01:26.26] |
That history puts a saint in every dream |
| [01:31.49] |
Well she said she'd stick around until the bandages came off |
| [01:36.91] |
But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit |
| [01:42.33] |
And Mathilda asks the sailors "Are those dreams or are those prayers?" |
| [01:47.80] |
So close your eyes, son, and this won't hurt a bit |
| [01:52.13][03:02.80] |
Oh it's time time time, and it's time time time |
| [02:20.22] |
Well things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl |
| [02:25.55] |
The boys just dive right off the cars and splash into the street |
| [02:31.13] |
And when they're on a roll she pulls a razor from her boot |
| [02:36.47] |
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet |
| [02:41.53] |
So put a candle in the window and a kiss upon his lips |
| [02:46.95] |
As the dish outside the window fills with rain |
| [02:52.74] |
Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart |
| [02:58.23] |
And pay the fiddler off 'til I come back again |
