[00:24.63] I've got a quarter in my pocket of an apple left to eat:
[00:30.95] It's a wonder that I'm standing on my own two feet.
[00:37.22] In the shadow of a thousand veiled Victorian goodbyes
[00:43.33] Jewels of litter come to greet me, and it stings my eyes.
[00:49.18] Oh it burns like a fire and it pulls me through-
[00:55.23] We are parted by desire for the strange and new.
[01:01.29] I've got a quarter in my pocket, I'm advancing to the booth,
[01:07.21] I am picking up and praying that I talk to you.
[01:11.75]
[01:14.01] And now, I'm halfway home, I'm at the corner of our street,
[01:22.53] Would you like to come and meet me?
[01:26.28] Now that I am halfway home
[01:32.26] Man, I never felt so lonely-
[01:35.24] I long for you to hold me now I'm home.
[01:40.16]
[01:50.64] Somedays, there was comfort as a stranger far from home
[01:56.04] Sometimes, a hunger and a longing not to be alone.
[02:02.54] Imagining emotion in each man that I would meet-
[02:07.83] But it was physics, and subtraction, to an ancient beat.
[02:14.71] Oh, it burned like a fire and I wore it so...
[02:20.38] We are tied up in desire and we won't let go.
[02:26.70] Well, I've no quarter in my pocket of no apple left to eat;
[02:30.73] I am running, I am running and I can't feel my feet.
[02:37.89]
[02:38.96] And now, I'm halfway home, I'm at the corner of our street,
[02:47.60] Would you like to come and meet me?
[02:50.92] Now that I'm halfway home
[02:56.89] Man, I never felt so lonely-
[03:00.48] I long for you to hold me now I'm home
[03:07.58]
[03:07.82] Now I'm home, home is where I wanna be,
[03:09.96] Now I'm home, home is where I'm gonna be.
[03:15.13] Past the church and past the steeple,
[03:17.88] Past the sad and lonely people,
[03:21.13] Past the old school on the avenue,
[03:24.75] I am running, I am running...
[03:26.83]
[03:27.96] And now, I'm halfway home, I'm at the corner of our street,
[03:37.63] Would you like to co9me and meet me
[03:41.32] Now that I'm halfway home
[03:46.22] Man, I never felt so lonely-
[03:49.65] I long for you to hold me now I'm home.
[03:51.82]
