| [00:59.15] | The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68 |
| [01:02.16] | And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday |
| [01:07.60] | Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe |
| [01:16.11] | "You laugh," he said, "You think you're immune, |
| [01:19.90] | Go look at your eyes, they're full of moon |
| [01:23.00] | You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you |
| [01:27.29] | All those pretty lies, pretty lies |
| [01:33.91] | When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies |
| [01:39.00] | Only pretty lies, just pretty lies" |
| [01:49.13] | |
| [01:56.54] | He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer |
| [01:59.10] | And he pushed three buttons and the thing began to whirr |
| [02:03.41] | And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie |
| [02:07.64] | And she said, "Drink up now it's gettin' on time to close" |
| [02:12.87] | "Richard you haven't really changed," I said, “ |
| [02:16.40] | "It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head “ |
| [02:20.49] | You got tombs in your eyes, but the songs you punched are dreaming |
| [02:25.79] | Listen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweet |
| [02:31.60] | [When you gonna go get yourself back on your feet? |
| [02:36.54] | Oh love can be so sweet, love so sweet. |
| [02:45.95] | |
| [02:52.39] | Richard got married to a figure skater |
| [02:56.10] | And he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator |
| [03:00.22] | And he drinks at home now most nights with the TV on |
| [03:04.10] | And all the house lights left up bright |
| [03:09.97] | I'm gonna blow this damn candle out |
| [03:12.47] | I don't want nobody comin' over to my table |
| [03:15.00] | I got nothing to talk to anybody about |
| [03:18.48] | All good dreamers pass this way some day |
| [03:21.19] | Hidin' behind bottles in dark cafes, dark cafes |
| [03:27.80] | Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings and fly away |
| [03:34.96] | Only a phase, these dark cafe days. |
