Time Lyrics - Strange Little Girls - Tori Amos

Well, the smart money's on harlow 

And the moon is in the street 

The shadow boys are breaking all the laws 

And you're east of east st. louis 

And the wind is making speeches 

And the rain sounds like a round of applause 

Napoleon is weeping in the carnival saloon 

His invisible fiance is in the mirror 

The band is going home 

It's raining hammers, it's raining nails 

Yes, it's true, there's nothing left for him down here 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

That you love 

And it's time time time 

And they all pretend they're orphans 

And their memory's like a train 

You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away 

And the things you can't remember 

Tell the things you can't forget that 

History puts a saint in every dream 

Well she said she'd stick around 

Until the bandages came off 

But these mama boys just don't know when to quit 

And matilda asks the sailors are those dreams 

Or are those prayers 

So just close your eyes son 

And this won't hurt a bit 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

That you love 

And it's time time time 

Well things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl 

The boys just dive right off the cars 

And splash into the streets 

And when they're on a roll 

She pulls a razor from her boot 

And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet 

So put a candle in the window 

And a kiss upon his lips 

Till the dish outside the window fills with rain 

Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart 

And pay the fiddler off till I come back again 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

And it's time time time 

That you love 

And it's time time time
