[00:17.890]I was in a bar called Paradise
[00:20.960]When the fiddler from the band
[00:23.780]Asked me "Why do you stand there crying?"
[00:30.230]I answered him: "Musician, this may come as a surprise
[00:36.230]I was trying to split the difference
[00:39.150]And it split before my eyes
[00:42.270]And my enemies have sweet voices
[00:45.400]Their tones are soft and kind
[00:48.380]When I hear my heart rejoices
[00:51.900]I do not seem to mind"
[00:57.090]
[01:08.120]I was playing Brag in Bedlam
[01:10.090]And the doctor would not deal
[01:12.660]Asking me: "Why do you kneel down there bleeding?"
[01:19.220]I answered him "Physician,
[01:22.350]I think you would have cried
[01:25.260]I was falling back on failure
[01:28.640]The failure stepped aside
[01:31.410]And my enemies have sweet voices
[01:34.500]Their tones are soft and kind
[01:37.420]When I hear my heart rejoices
[01:41.300]I do not seem to mind"
[01:47.140]
[03:30.720]I was blind side to the gutter
[03:33.810]And Merlin happened by
[03:36.410]Asking me "why do you lie down there bleeding?"
[03:42.950]I answered him "Magician, as a matter of a fact
[03:48.860]I was jumping to conclusions
[03:52.070]And one of them jumped back
[03:55.140]And my enemies have sweet voices
[03:58.010]Their tones are soft and kind
[04:01.040]When I hear my heart rejoices
[04:04.710]I do not seem to mind"
