[00:25.31]It’s four in the morning, the end of December
[00:32.38]I’m writing you now just to see if you’re better
[00:37.96]New York is cold, but I like where I’m living
[00:43.89]There’s music on Clinton Street all through the evening
[00:50.15]I hear that you’re building your little house deep in the desert
[01:02.98]You’re living for nothing now
[01:06.93]I hope you’re keeping some kind of record
[01:12.55]Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
[01:22.26]She said that you gave it to her
[01:27.81]That night that you planned to go clear
[01:38.15]Did you ever go clear?
[01:43.45]Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
[01:49.53]Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[01:55.58]You’d been to the station to meet every
[02:00.04]Train, and You came home without Lili Marlene
[02:07.69]And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
[02:20.62]And when she came back she was nobody’s wife
[02:29.94]Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
[02:40.18]One more thin gypsy thief
[02:46.46]Well, I see Jane’s awake
[02:56.04]She sends her regards
[03:13.54]And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
[03:19.99]What can I possibly say?
[03:25.35]I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
[03:31.65]I’m glad you stood in my way
[03:37.17]If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
[03:49.63]Well, your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free
[03:58.72]Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
[04:09.51]I thought it was there for good so I never tried
[04:22.94]And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
