Альбом The Twilight Singers

Rock steady, baby, your man is dead
Be careful, sugar, of who you call a friend
'Cause they'll get you in the end

Step easy, baby, and don't you cry
She had another brother on the side
You could not let it slide

And if, my love, I said I'm sorry
Would you believe me? Should I cry?
Then hold me as I die

And the ones who live are the ones who fly
And the ones who crawl come crawling by and by
On back to you again

But I ain't never going to see you again
And I'm never going to feel you again
So let this moment never ever end

And if, my love, I said I'm sorry
Would you believe me? Should I cry?
Then hold me as I die, as I die

And if, my love, I said I'm sorry
Would you believe me? Should I cry?
Then hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me as I die

See the morning light
It breaks the sky to the east
Hear the birds above
Announcing the light like rays of love

Hear the one who sings
As darkness clouds the western sky
The one who sounds as though
He's weeping for his long lost lover

He's alone and sad
He betrays the bluest sounds coming down
Over the rooftops, into your dreams
That's just how that bird sings

All the way until
The heat of the night time still
At that hour
All of the dreams devour the senses

Mothers, keep your child
Far from home they will roam
Run to trouble first
It is what they thirst for to quench their sorrow

He's alone and sad
He betrays the bluest sounds coming down
Over the rooftops, into your dreams
He will sing despite the approaching night
As though you know just what he means
I suppose that's just how that bird sings

See the morning light
Hear the break of the sky
See the reason why
We got to say
It's the only way
It's the time

Baby doll, where you going?
So much to do, so much to see
Baby doll, why you leaving?
Come upstairs and get high with me

The time is nigh, for us to fly
Take you where there's no sorrow
Time is right and time is invisible
If you'll come with me

Shot dead by you again
You're getting closer, girl, I'm sensing the end
One more inch, just to the right
You got me hanging, girl, be back tomorrow night to get you

I smell a sweet fragrance about you
And I know that you want it too
So if I, I trip and lay one heavy on you
Please forgive me

You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so
What I feel inside, I can't deny
You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so
What I feel inside, I can't deny, my love

You know just where I live
I cannot slip you, girl, it's useless, I know
Nobody ever touched me before like you did
But you won't do it again no more

The light upon your face
Is taking me, girl, to another time and place
I want to see you so high
Little girl, I can't leave you alone

You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so
What I feel inside, I can't deny
You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so
What I feel inside, I can't deny

You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so
What I feel inside, I can't deny
You're making me want it so
You're making me want it so

Once I thought I would be king
And get a piece of anything
A kingdom has it coming to
If I flew high enough
To touch the hand of Venus
Would she stroke my face
And promise me the kingdom would be mine if only I

Play me
Save me
Either way I'll be your baby
'Cause you don't have to tell me so
For me to know
That you don't love me any more

Once I woke up from a dream
And knew that things would never be
The kingdom that was promised me
And I fell far enough
To touch the hand of Lucifer
Stripped of all his glory
When he sat beside the king
And was denied

Play me
Save me
Either way I'll be your baby
'Cause you don't have to tell me so
For me to know
That you don't love me any more

Play me
Save me
Either way I want to be your baby
'Cause you don't have to tell me so
For me to know
That you don't love me any more

Love is good
Love is good
Love is good
Love is good

At three fifteen
I heard you leave
Where did you go?
Were you alone?
Am I the only one for you?

So tell me true
I'd kill for you
It's sick I know
But after all
By definition of the word

Love is blind
Love is good

I woke at dawn
Still you were gone
You didn't phone
Are you alone?
Am I the only one for you?

So tell me true
I'd kill for you
It's sick I know
But after all
By definition of the word

Love is blind
Love is good

Love is good
Love is good
Love is good
Love is good

Love is good

Annie Mae, Annie Mae
Seems I've gone and lost my way
As situations go
I think that I can safely say

I'm lost, baby, find me
I'm lost, baby, find me
I wonder where you were

Annie Mae, Annie Mae
Another bed I've found to stay
Another bed I've found
To wrap my evil head around

I'm lost, baby, find me
I'm lost, baby, find me
And tell me where you were

God, you look fine, Annie?
Have you got a line, Annie?
I've lost my mind, Annie
But the sun is shining high today

I slipped though time, Annie
Don't you drop dime, Annie
I see it in your eyes, Annie
When the sun went back behind the clouds

You used to be mine, Annie
Alone in twilight, Annie
Alone in twilight, Annie
In between the day and the night

God, you look fine, Annie?
Have you got a line, Annie?
I've lost my mind, Annie
The sun is shining high again today

I slipped though time, Annie
Don't you drop dime, Annie
I see it in your eyes, Annie
The sun went back behind the clouds again

You used to be mine, Annie
Alone in twilight, Annie
Alone in twilight, Annie
In between the day and the night

Au revoir, enculé
Goodbye, motherfucker

Every time I think of you
I get the same old sinking feeling
I think of a garden so still
I think of a cross upon a hill
And I think you know what I'm saying

So as these chords descend
So I shall follow them
They holler, catch me if you can
They holler, catch me, holler, catch me

Baby, I'm going down
Get your hands up off me, girl
I think I know my way around by now
They come to the party one by one
Until it's done, until it's done

My enemy
You must think you have the best of me
But you must know me to be vain
To leave this undone would be such a shame

So as these chords descend
So I shall follow them
They holler, catch me if you can
They holler, catch me, holler, catch me

Well, I will catch you by morning
My god, my god, my god

I'm going down
Get your hands up off me, girl
I think I know my way around by now
They come to the party one by one
Until it's done, until it's done

Baby, I'm going down
Get your hands up off me, girl
I think I know my way around by now
They come to the party one by one
Until it's done, until it's done

Until it's done
Until it's done
Until it's done
Until it's done

Do you remember when I told you
That I had a tale to tell?
Let me regale you, child
About a life spent on the rail

Forget me not, don't forget it
Forget me not, don't forget it
Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute

And whenever the drugstore man
Used to come around
I'd bite my lip
And then I'd take myself to town

Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
Forget me not, don't forget it
Don't call me no more, no more

Nobody ever needs you
When you're this far gone
This far gone
Nobody ever needs you
When you're this far gone

Now you say the train's a coming
But I don't see it on the track
Last train's eleven
And it ain't coming back

Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
Forget me not, don't forget it
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
'Cause I'll be gone in a minute
I'll be gone in a minute
Don't call me no more, no more

‘Cause nobody ever needs you
When you're gone
When you're gone
When you're gone
When you're this far gone

All are punished

One early morn I couldn't sleep
I poured myself into the street
I watched the world from off a cloud
I saw the people quarrelling out loud

So sad, the wind
A brighter day will come again

Shut out the lights, turn down the bed
Whatever gets you through your head
Unlock the door, throw away the key
We don't want the spirits watching
As they hover over you and me

And as they dance
They call their way around
They come, they often go
They know, they often go low

My little girl, where did you go?
I cannot find you any more
Angel sweet, angel bright
Come on back to me
I promise you the wall will fall with me

The way, I'm going down
This time, this time, I'm going down
I can't fight, I'm going down
Goodbye

When darkness falls
On summer's end
So in your absence
I shall begin

When darkness falls
The race is done
And love lives not
When hope is gone

Goodbye, sugar

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right, baby, you'll see
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

The longest night of every year
I spent beside you, baby
Do you remember
Anything about me?

I was the one
When hope was gone
Who took too long
To sing this song

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right, baby, you'll see
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right, baby, you'll see
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

When darkness falls
On summer's end
So in your absence
I shall begin
When darkness falls
The race is through

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right

Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
Everything's going to be all right
