[00:11.876] |
She comes for me in silence, |
[00:14.252] |
When the night is closing down, |
[00:17.469] |
And most have drawn the curtains on their eyes. |
[00:23.454] |
She wears a lover's face, |
[00:25.926] |
That has never seen a dawn, |
[00:29.488] |
It disappears in daylight, |
[00:31.698] |
And I know it's just disguise. |
[00:34.587] |
And she says, I... carry the sadness of a woman, |
[00:43.831] |
A sadness only women understand, |
[00:47.528] |
You... you'll hear my footsteps, |
[00:53.647] |
Louder when I'm gone, |
[00:56.547] |
Just like every other man. |
[01:02.470] |
Just like every other man. |
[01:09.706] |
Many nights I've waited only, |
[01:12.603] |
To see her shying at the fences, |
[01:16.128] |
She measures, her time with me like salt. |
[01:21.521] |
Just enough to help the flavor, |
[01:24.214] |
Of her times and of her tenses not too much, |
[01:30.214] |
That corrosion might take hold. |
[01:32.916] |
And she says, I... carry the sadness of a woman, |
[01:42.355] |
A sadness only women understand, |
[01:46.092] |
You... you'll hear my footsteps, |
[01:52.629] |
Louder when I'm gone, |
[01:54.677] |
Just like every other man. |
[02:01.003] |
Just like every other man. |
[02:08.328] |
Can you trace, your reflection in my eyes? |
[02:13.503] |
I can be fooled, but not this time, she sighs |
[02:20.453] |
"In this old blue dress, |
[02:23.422] |
How can you adore me, |
[02:25.895] |
When you really should ignore, and let me go?" |
[02:30.487] |
I say take off that old blue dress, |
[02:34.067] |
And come for me in twilight, |
[02:37.414] |
And she smiles as if she just might, |
[02:40.361] |
And that's all I need to know. |
[02:47.578] |
And she says, I... carry the sadness of a woman, |
[02:55.701] |
A sadness only women understand, |
[02:59.270] |
You... you'll hear my footsteps, |
[03:05.483] |
Louder when I'm gone, |
[03:08.345] |
Just like every other man. |
[03:14.263] |
Just like every other man. |
[03:19.833] |
Just like every other man. |
