[00:18.07]O crown of light, o Darkened One
[00:41.29]I never thought we’d meet
[00:50.08]You kiss my lips and then it’s done
[01:03.48]
[01:12.32]And I’m back on Boogie Street
[01:20.62](Sharon Robinson wrote this tune)
[01:25.83]
[01:29.08]A sip of wine, a cigarette
[01:36.38]And then it’s time to go
[01:41.10]I tidied up the kitchenette
[01:47.20]I tuned the old banjo
[01:52.36]I’m wanted at the traffic-jam
[01:57.93]They’re saving me a seat
[02:03.56]I’m what I am, and what I am
[02:08.82]Is back on Boogie Street
[02:15.25]And o my love, I still recall
[02:23.35]The pleasures that we knew
[02:28.08]The rivers and the waterfall
[02:34.17]Wherein I bathed with you
[02:38.97]Bewildered by your beauty there
[02:44.67]I’d kneel to dry your feet
[02:50.96]By such instructions you prepare
[02:55.62]A man for Boogie Street
[03:03.50]
[03:10.61]O crown of light, o Darkened One
[03:22.66]
[03:26.25]I never thought we’d meet
[03:32.74]You kiss my lips and then it’s done
[03:45.08]And I’m back, back on Boogie Street
[03:53.92]
[04:00.05]So come, my friends, be not afraid
[04:07.59]We are so lightly here
[04:12.42]It is in love that we are made
[04:18.08]In love we disappear
[04:23.73]Though all the maps of blood and flesh
[04:28.78]Are posted on the door
[04:34.96]There’s no one who has told us yet
[04:42.13]What Boogie Street is for
[04:49.48]O crown of light, o Darkened One
[05:04.68]I never thought we’d meet
[05:11.35]You kiss my lips, and then it’s done
[05:23.66]And I’m back, back on Boogie Street
[05:31.72]
[05:38.86]A sip of wine, a cigarette
[05:46.25]And then it’s time to go
[05:50.96]I tidied up the kitchenette
[05:56.72]I tuned the old banjo
[06:01.89]I’m wanted at the traffic-jam
[06:07.53]They’re saving me a seat
[06:13.65]I’m what I am, and what I am
[06:18.54]Is back on Boogie Street, ooh yeah
[06:31.70]
