[00:25.900]It's four in the morning the end of december
[00:31.480]I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
[00:37.930]New york is cold but I like where I'm living
[00:43.840]There's music on clinton street all through the evening
[00:51.640]I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
[01:03.490]You're living for nothing now I hope you're keeping some kind of record
[01:13.090]Yes and jane came by with a lock of your hair
[01:22.740]She said that you gave it to her
[01:28.690]That night that you planned to go clear
[01:39.490]Did you ever go clear
[01:44.290]Ah the last time we saw you you looked so much older
[01:50.940]Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[01:57.350]You'd been to the station to meet every train
[02:02.850]And you came home without lili marlene
[02:08.900]And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
[02:23.350]And when she came back she was nobody's wife
[02:33.600]Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
[02:43.810]One more thin gypsy thief
[02:49.960]Well I see jane's awake --
[03:00.360]She sends her regards
[03:31.560]And what can I tell you my brother my killer
[03:40.310]What can I possibly say
[03:44.020]I guess that I miss you I guess I forgive you
[03:50.070]I'm glad you stood in my way
[03:58.270]If you ever come by here for jane or for me
[04:07.970]Your enemy is sleeping and his woman is free
[04:20.780]Yes and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes
[04:31.930]I thought it was there for good so I never tried
[04:46.280]And jane came by with a lock of your hair
[04:54.780]She said that you gave it to her
[05:00.890]That night that you planned to go clear
