| [00:15.71] | Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down |
| [00:23.09] | The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below. |
| [00:30.77] | Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors |
| [00:37.46] | Of silent desperation, never speaking to a soul. |
| [00:45.25] | The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dying |
| [00:51.73] | 'Cos it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain. |
| [00:59.06] | But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes, |
| [01:06.15] | Of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains. |
| [01:19.90] | "Oh," she said: "Casey, it's been so long since I've seen you. |
| [01:32.46] | "Here," she said: "just a kiss to make a body smile. “ |
| [01:43.82] | "See," she said: "I've put on new stockings just to please you. “ |
| [01:55.13] | "Lord," she said. "Casey, can you only stay a while." |
| [02:09.05] | Casey leaves the underground and stops inside The Golden Crown, |
| [02:15.84] | For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones. |
| [02:23.58] | Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men, |
| [02:30.22] | Who reach for anything they can to keep from going home. |
| [02:37.21] | Standing in the corner, Casey drinks his pint of bitter, |
| [02:43.99] | Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by. |
| [02:51.33] | And he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason, |
| [02:59.13] | Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye. |
| [03:12.34] | "Oh," she said: "I suppose you seldom think about me. |
| [03:25.05] | "Now," she said: "now that you've a family of your own. “ |
| [03:35.70] | "Still," she said: "It's so blessed good to feel your body. “ |
| [03:47.15] | "Lord," she said: "Casey, it's a shame to be alone." |
| [03:58.46] | "Oh," she said: "Casey, it's been so long since I've seen you. |
| [04:10.27] | "Here," she said: "just a kiss to make a body smile. “ |
| [04:20.81] | "See," she said: "I've put on new stockings just to please you. “ |
| [04:31.88] | "Lord," she said. "Casey, can you only stay a while." |
