Lyrics

[00:28.80] Shadows are fallin' and I've been here all day
[00:37.93] It's too hot to sleep and time is runnin' away
[00:46.69]
[00:47.81] Feel like my soul has turned into steel
[00:53.56]
[00:57.32] I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
[01:05.32]
[01:07.25] There's not even room enough to be anywhere
[01:16.32] It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
[01:21.88]
[01:29.26] Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
[01:35.57]
[01:38.57] Behind every beautiful thing there's been some kind of pain
[01:45.69]
[01:48.38] She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
[01:57.94] She put down in writin' what was in her mind
[02:04.76]
[02:08.08] I just don't see why I should even care
[02:17.42] It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
[02:26.48]
[02:30.23] Well, I've been to London and I been to gay Paris
[02:39.98] I've followed the river and I got to the sea
[02:46.16]
[02:49.10] I've been down on the bottom of the world full of lies
[02:58.74] I ain't lookin' for nothin' in anyone's eyes
[03:08.56] Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
[03:17.50]
[03:18.06] It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
[03:29.87]
[04:36.06] I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
[04:36.14] was born here and I'll die here against my willI
[04:36.06]
[04:45.75] Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
[04:54.20] I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
[05:01.76]
[05:04.88] Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
[05:12.13]
[05:14.07] It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
