I tried to leave you, I don't deny. I closed the book on us, at least a hundred times. I'd wake up every morning by your side. . The years go by, you lose your pride.
If you want a lover. I'll do anything you ask me to. And if you want another kind of love. I'll wear a mask for you. If you want a partner, take my hand, or.
Your father's gone a-hunting. He's lost in the forest so wild. And he cannot take his wife with him. He cannot take his child. . Your father's gone a-hunting.
I came so far for beauty. I left so much behind. My patience and my family. My masterpiece unsigned. . I thought I'd be rewarded. For such a lonely choice.
I stumbled out of bed. I got ready for the struggle. I smoked a cigarette. And I tightened up my gut. I said this can't be me. Must be my double. And I can't forget, I can't forget.
I left a woman waiting. I met her sometime later. She said, I see your eyes are dead. What happened to you, lover?. What happened to you, my lover?. What happened to you, lover?.
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm. Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm. Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new.
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm. Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm. Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new.
Do you remember all of those pledges. That we pledged in the passionate night. Ah they're soiled now, they're torn at the edges. Like moths on a still yellow light.
Now I've heard there was a secret chord. That David played, and it pleased the Lord. But you don't really care for music, do you?. It goes like this. The fourth, the fifth.
Now I greet you from the other side of sorrow and despair, with a love so vast. And so shattered, it will reach you everywhere.. . And I sing this for the captain whose ship has not been built, for the mother in.
Here is your crown. And your seal and rings. And here is your love. For all things.. . Here is your cart,. And your cardboard and piss. And here is your love.
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom. For trying to change the system from within. I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them. First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin.
[Dedicated to Irving Layton]. . So we'll go no more a-roving. So late into the night,. Though the heart be still as loving,. And the moon be still as bright..
I love to speak with Leonard. He's a sportsman and a shepherd. He's a lazy bastard. Living in a suit. . But he does say what I tell him. Even though it isn't welcome.
Field Commander Cohen, he was our most important spy.. Wounded in the line of duty,. Parachuting acid into diplomatic cocktail parties,. Urging Fidel Castro to abandon fields and castles..
I touched you once too often. Now I don't know who I am. My fingerprints were missing. When I wiped away the jam. Yes I called my fingerprints all night.
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom. For trying to change the system from within. I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them. First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin.
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded. Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed. Everybody knows the war is over. Everybody knows the good guys lost.
It's four in the morning, the end of December. I'm writing you now just to see if you're better. New York is cold, but I like where I'm living. There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
