[00:03.59]Well the smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street
[00:09.02]And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws
[00:14.12]And you're east of East Saint Louis and the wind is making speeches
[00:19.68]And the rain sounds like a round of applause
[00:25.73]And Napoleon is weeping in a carnival saloon
[00:30.69]His invisible fiancee's in the mirror
[00:36.10]And the band is going home, it's raining hammers, it's raining nails
[00:41.83]And it's true there's nothing left for him down here
[00:45.97]And it's time time time, and it's time time time
[00:57.98]And it's time time time that you love
[01:03.99]And it's time time time
[01:10.24]And they all pretend they're orphans and their memory's like a train
[01:15.36]You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away
[01:20.78]And the things you can't remember tell the things you can't forget
[01:26.26]That history puts a saint in every dream
[01:31.49]Well she said she'd stick around until the bandages came off
[01:36.91]But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit
[01:42.33]And Mathilda asks the sailors "Are those dreams or are those prayers?"
[01:47.80]So close your eyes, son, and this won't hurt a bit
[01:52.13]Oh it's time time time, and it's time time time
[02:03.83]And it's time time time that you love
[02:09.34]And it's time time time
[02:20.22]Well things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl
[02:25.55]The boys just dive right off the cars and splash into the street
[02:31.13]And when they're on a roll she pulls a razor from her boot
[02:36.47]And a thousand pigeons fall around her feet
[02:41.53]So put a candle in the window and a kiss upon his lips
[02:46.95]As the dish outside the window fills with rain
[02:52.74]Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart
[02:58.23]And pay the fiddler off 'til I come back again
[03:02.80]Oh it's time time time, and it's time time time
[03:13.20]And it's time time time that you love
[03:19.74]And it's time time time
[03:25.00]And it's time time time, and it's time time time
[03:35.89]And it's time time time that you love
[03:42.12]And it's time time time
