[00:27.309]	It's four in the morning, the end of December
[00:33.108]	I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
[00:38.658]	New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
[00:43.908]	There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
[00:51.78]	Tell me you're building your house deep in the desert
[01:01.318]	Are you living for nothing now, hope you're keeping some kind of record.
[01:10.858]	Yes, Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[01:19.480]	Said you gave it to her
[01:23.889]	That night when you planned to go clear,OH
[01:32.947]	Did you ever go clear?
[01:36.638]	Well, the last time we saw you, you looked so much older
[01:42.188]	Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[01:47.428]	Stood in the station and met every train
[01:52.668]	But she never showed up I'm Lili Marlene
[01:58.579]	And you treated some woman to a flake of your life
[02:10.299]	When she got home she was nobody's wife.
[02:18.149]	Yes, I see you there with a rose in your teeth
[02:27.599]	One more thin gypsy thief
[02:32.969]	Well I see Jane's awake
[02:41.149]	She sends her regards.
[02:48.699]
[03:05.849]	And what can I tell you oh what can I tell you
[03:11.29]	What can I possibly say
[03:16.299]	I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
[03:21.319]	I'm glad that you stood in my way.
[03:27.629]	And if you ever come by here, be it for Jane or for me
[03:36.109]	I want you to know your enemy's sleeping
[03:41.99]	I want you to know your woman is free.
[03:46.599]	Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
[03:56.959]	I thought it was there for good so we never really tried,OH.
[04:09.199]	And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[04:16.919]	Said you gave it to her
[04:21.349]	That night when you planned to go clear
[04:31.149]	Sincerely, a friend
