Lyrics

[00:01.16] Emiliana Torrini - Next Time Around
[00:02.07]
[00:05.87]
[00:24.61]
[00:25.63] Then came question and it was about time
[00:30.83] The answer came back and it was long
[00:37.11] The house it was built by so men in rhyme
[00:42.57] But whatever came of his talented son
[00:49.24]
[00:54.70] Who wrote me a dialogue set a tune
[01:01.31] Always you told me of being alone
[01:07.23] Except for the stories about God and you
[01:12.84] And do you still live there, in Bufallo
[01:18.81]
[01:25.64] They put up the walls, no more to say
[01:30.74] Nobody stopped to ask why it was done
[01:36.60] The stream was too far and the rains to high
[01:42.11] So into the city the river did run
[01:49.80]
[01:54.04] Because of the architect the buildings fell down
[02:00.57] Smothered and drowned all the seeds that you sowed
[02:06.48] I wish I was somewhere but not in this town
[02:11.79] Maybe the ocean next time around
[02:17.05]
[02:23.57] I seem to remember the face and the name
[02:29.23] But if it's not you I don't care
[02:35.04] I know of changes, but nothing would change you
[02:40.25] To Theo the sailor who sings in his lair
[02:49.70]
[02:52.58] Then I'll turn and he won't be there,
[02:58.50] Dusky black windows to light the dark stair
[03:04.37] Candles will nod in the musty air
[03:09.98] Oh, with the flames for as many as the years
[03:16.14]
[03:16.59] 2009.06.08 1
[03:17.05]
