Well this morning on the radio I heard the d.j. say. That the temperature is rising. And it's going to be a real hot day. . I took the taxi to the studio at 48th and Broadway.
I stop to catch my breath. And I stop to catch your eye. No need to second-guess. That you've been on my mind. I dream days away, but that's okay. It's like I want to hear a silent sound.
Don't be drawing me diamonds. And popping champagne. And dancing me out to the movie screen. You're painting these pictures. Of fireplace smoke. And those little white fences.
I can tell by the way you've been yelling her name. That it's more than a friendly game. With a smile and a "I'm gonna fight to the death" expression in her eye.
* car pulls up *. Hey fellas. Any of you guys seen Willie Calloway?. Wille who, man?. What you talkin bout?. Calloway, Willie Calloway. What this fool talkin bout?.
Never never. . I won't follow you. Curse you through and through. . Live my life until the of time comes. . Straining paining. See through all your lies.
Salvation. Soul searching for lost innocence. I feel it coming, coming in waves. Created my own world. The angels they carry me. It's such a long way home.
Seeing you. Burns my eyes. Touching you. Burns my skin. You've tortured me and watched me die. Concrete will. I can't give in. . Sorrow grows. Life it dies.
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. . Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. . Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.
In the velvet darkness,. Of the blackest night,. Burning bright,. There's a guiding star.. No matter what or who you are.. . There's a light. . Over at the Frankenstein place..
You cut your teeth on the cold war costumes. But caught your eye on a Lilly-white lullaby of. red and black collapse. You mix it up in the church and state dives.
When I wake, I see you. Lying there on the bathroom floor. With foam lips, a black kiss. Your dead hero and now myth. The way you look so nice. We'll save the un-dead princess.
About time, I don't care how you've been. I know, you've got and I want it. Long night and I don't want it to end. I'm glad to see you coming. . Well, I know what they think they do.
It's not every single day. But sometimes I do sit and pray. I pray for better days. Away from this lonesome place. . Stay, Stay in Love. When I noticed the tears in your eyes.
And I'll wait, I'll wait. Her eyes are wandering off. . Take my hand, I'll fight. I will fight these lights. We left the lights we had. Without hesitation.
Almost polite, they point a finger. Chase the muslin designs. Almost as blind, shrug your shoulder. Look what you're leaving behind. . On the way out, out of this world.
You arrive here unexplained. I can't believe the chance you took. I can't believe you're back again. Sister come in from the rain. Those images are fading now.
