[00:03.59]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 ***** in your heart [02:58.23]And pay the fiddler off 'til I come back again
