Afternoon (Album Version)-Pat Metheny Group

[00:00.61]When I am old, and comforted, [00:02.37]And done with this desire, [00:04.63]With memory to share my bed. [00:08.60]When I am old, and comforted, [00:10.27]And done with this desire, [00:12.64]With peace to share my fire, [00:16.41] [00:16.77]I'll comb my hair in scalloped bands [00:20.03]Beneath my laundered cap, [00:24.75]And watch my cool and fragile hands [00:28.81]Lie light upon my lap. [00:31.45] [00:32.81]And I will have a sprigged gown [00:36.86]With lace to kiss my throat; [00:40.78]I'll draw my curtain to the town, [00:44.86]And hum a purring note. [00:47.56] [00:48.88]And I'll forget the way of tears, [00:52.66]And rock, and stir my tea. [00:56.96]But oh, I wish those blessed years [01:00.90]Were further than they be! [01:04.09] [01:04.98]And I will have a sprigged gown [01:08.85]With lace to kiss my throat; [01:12.77]I'll draw my curtain to the town, [01:16.90]And hum a purring note. [01:20.41] [01:20.84]When I am old, and comforted, [01:22.84]And done with this desire, [01:25.14]With memory to share my bed [01:28.98]When I am old, and comforted, [01:30.80]And done with this desire, [01:33.07]With peace to share my fire, [01:37.19]With peace to share my fire, [01:40.09]
