[00:23.784] I got two strong arms
[00:27.035] Blessings of Babylon
[00:29.449] Time to carry on and try
[00:32.644] For sins and false alarms
[00:36.584] So to America the brave
[00:41.396] Wise men save
[00:43.216] Near a tree by a river
[00:45.800] There's a hole in the ground
[00:47.679] Where an old man of Aran
[00:50.442] Goes around and around
[00:52.838] And his mind is a beacon
[00:55.219] In the veil of the night
[00:57.562] For a strange kind of fashion
[01:00.037] There's a wrong and a right
[01:02.591] But he'll never, never fight over you
[01:07.229] I got plans for us
[01:10.466] Nights in the scullery
[01:12.438] And days instead of me
[01:15.094] I only know what to discuss
[01:19.854] Oh, for anything but light
[01:24.659] Wise men fighting over you
[01:29.038] It's not me you see
[01:31.705] Pieces of valentine
[01:34.136] And just a song of mine
[01:36.571] To keep from burning history
[01:41.410] Seasons of gasoline and gold
[01:46.168] Wise men fold
[01:48.364] Near a tree by a river
[01:50.388] There's a hole in the ground
[01:52.777] Where an old man of Aran
[01:54.972] Goes around and around
[01:57.858] And his mind is a beacon
[02:00.264] In the veil of the night
[02:02.462] For a strange kind of fashion
[02:04.911] There's a wrong and a right
[02:07.373] But he'll never, never fight over you
[02:12.298] I got time to kill
[02:15.525] Sly looks in corridors
[02:17.737] Without a plan of yours
[02:19.935] A blackbird sings on bluebird hill
[02:24.838] Thanks to the calling of the wild
[02:29.751] Wise men's child
[02:52.941] Near a tree by a river
[02:55.310] There's a hole in the ground
[02:58.198] Where an old man of Aran
[03:00.202] Goes around and around
[03:02.722] And his mind is a beacon
[03:04.933] In the veil of the night
[03:07.368] For a strange kind of fashion
[03:09.707] There's a wrong and a right
[03:12.092] But he'll never, never fight
[03:13.335] But he'll never, never fight over you
[03:34.282] No, he'll never, never fight over you
