The Bridge - Scott Walker[00:00:00]
I've watched her from the river banks[00:00:13]
I knew her when she danced with dreams[00:00:19]
White doves were there to dress her hair[00:00:25]
And so was madelaine[00:00:30]
At night the people's faces danced[00:00:36]
Like pearls colliding on the breast[00:00:42]
Of fat marie whose thunder laugh[00:00:47]
Was just a thread from crying[00:00:53]
Her sailors stained her cobblestones[00:01:01]
With wine and piss and death desire[00:01:07]
And sometimes blood for madelaine[00:01:13]
Whose laughter was the night[00:01:18]
Her girls would lift their dresses high[00:01:24]
And breathe the stars and kiss the sky[00:01:30]
She'd smother them with whispers then[00:01:36]
Embrace them with her sighs[00:01:42]
Before the bottle dulled my eyes[00:01:47]
And made me so i couldn't stand[00:01:53]
I'd overact and play the clown[00:01:59]
When madelaine would cry[00:02:05]
And now i watch from riverbanks[00:02:10]
I watch it weave it's memories[00:02:16]
White doves turned gray and flew away[00:02:22]
And so did madelaine[00:02:28]
