|
Outside your window it waited for you |
|
You didn't come |
|
You never do |
|
In the city in the wintertime |
|
The snow and the rime |
|
Cover the isolation |
|
Yesterday, baby, they told you the news |
|
They meant you no harm |
|
They never do |
|
You can take it any way you want |
|
It comes and it goes |
|
Rising in broken waves and dreams |
|
Heavy hours passing by the way |
|
Devil knows how I'm trying, babe |
|
I hear you breathing so steady and true |
|
The whole night long |
|
The whole night through |
|
Your lungs soft heaving in slow drunken time |
|
Falling with mine forever here |
|
Heavy hours dragging by the way |
|
Devil knows how I'm trying, baby |
|
Heavy hours passing by the way |
|
Devil knows how hard I'm trying, babe |
