Time - Rosanne Cash
Composed by：Tom Waits
The smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street
And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws
It's east of East St Louis
And the wind is making speeches
And the rain sounds like a round of applause
And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon
His invisible fiancée is in the mirror
And the band is goin' home
It's raining hammers it's raining nails
It's true there's nothing left for him down here
And it's time time time
It's time time time
It's time time time that you love
And it's time time time
And they all pretend they're orphans and their memory's like a train
You can see them getting smaller as they pull away
Oh and the things you can't remember
Tell the things you can't forget
That history puts a saint in every dream
And she said she'd stick around
'Til the bandages came off
But these mama's boys
Just don't know when to quit
And Matilda asks the sailors
Are those dreams or are those prayers
Close your eyes son and this won't hurt a bit
And it's time time time
It's time time time
It's time time time that you love
And it's time time time
Oh and things are pretty lousy for the calendar girls
The boys just dive right off the cars
And splash into the street
Oh and when she's on a roll
She pulls a razor from her boot
And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet
So put a candle in the window
And a kiss upon my lips
As the dish outside the window fills with rain
Oh and just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart
Pay the fiddler off
'Til I come back again
And it's time time time
It's time time time
It's time time time that you love
And it's time time time
It's time time time that you love
And it's time time time
