[00:19.78]It's four in the morning the end of December
[00:24.87]I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
[00:29.92]New York is cold but I like where I'm living
[00:34.41]There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening
[00:40.90]Tell me you're building your house deep in the desert
[00:50.72]Are you living for nothing now hope you're
[00:54.29]Keeping some kind of record
[00:58.66]Yes Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[01:06.62]Said you gave it to her
[01:11.15]That night when you planned to go clear oh
[01:19.83]Did you ever go clear
[01:23.72]Well the last time we saw you you looked so much older
[01:28.28]Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[01:33.67]Stood in the station and met every train
[01:37.75]But she never showed up I'm Lili Marlene
[01:44.07]And you treated some woman to a flake of your life
[01:54.41]When she came back she was nobody's wife
[02:02.47]Yes I see you there with a rose in your teeth
[02:10.81]One more thin gypsy thief
[02:16.08]Well I see Jane's awake
[02:23.69]She sends her regards
[02:27.63]And what can I tell you oh what can I tell you
[02:32.42]What can I possibly say
[02:37.29]I guess that I miss you I guess I forgive you
[02:42.12]I'm glad that you stood in my way
[02:47.79]And if you ever come by here be it for Jane or for me
[02:58.06]I want you to know your enemy's sleeping
[03:02.44]I want you to know your woman is free
[03:06.79]Thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes
[03:13.91]I thought it was there for good so we never really tried oh
[03:26.27]And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[03:33.59]Said you gave it to her
[03:38.10]That night when you planned to go clear
[03:41.96]
