Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women[00:00:04]
There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry[00:00:10]
There's a lobby with nine hundred windows[00:00:14]
There's a tree where the doves go to die[00:00:20]
There's a piece that was torn from the morning[00:00:25]
And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost[00:00:30]
Ay Ay Ay Ay[00:00:35]
Take this waltz take this waltz[00:00:40]
Take this waltz with the clamp on its jaws[00:00:45]
Oh I want you I want you I want you[00:00:55]
On a chair with a dead magazine[00:01:00]
In the cave at the tip of the lily[00:01:05]
In some hallways where love's never been[00:01:10]
On a bed where the moon has been sweating[00:01:15]
In a cry filled with footsteps and sand[00:01:20]
Ay Ay Ay Ay[00:01:26]
Take this waltz take this waltz[00:01:31]
Take its broken waist in your hand[00:01:35]
This waltz this waltz this waltz this waltz[00:01:46]
With its very own breath of brandy and Death[00:01:51]
Dragging its tail in the sea[00:01:56]
There's a concert hall in Vienna[00:02:01]
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews[00:02:08]
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking[00:02:14]
They've been sentenced to death by the blues[00:02:18]
Ah but who is it climbs to your picture[00:02:24]
With a garland of freshly cut tears [00:02:29]
Ay Ay Ay Ay[00:02:34]
Take this waltz take this waltz[00:02:38]
Take this waltz it's been dying for years[00:02:44]
There's an attic where children are playing[00:02:54]
Where I've got to lie down with you soon[00:02:59]
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns[00:03:04]
In the mist of some sweet afternoon[00:03:09]
And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow[00:03:14]
All your sheep and your lilies of snow[00:03:19]
Ay Ay Ay Ay[00:03:25]
Take this waltz take this waltz[00:03:29]
With its "I'll never forget you you know "[00:03:34]
This waltz this waltz this waltz this waltz [00:03:45]
With its very own breath of brandy and Death[00:03:50]
Dragging its tail in the sea[00:03:55]
And I'll dance with you in Vienna[00:04:02]
I'll be wearing a river's disguise[00:04:08]
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder [00:04:13]
My mouth on the dew of your thighs[00:04:18]
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook [00:04:23]
With the photographs there and the moss[00:04:28]
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty[00:04:32]
My cheap violin and my cross[00:04:39]
And you'll carry me down on your dancing[00:04:44]
To the pools that you lift on your wrist[00:04:48]
Oh my love Oh my love[00:04:53]
Take this waltz take this waltz[00:04:58]
It's yours now It's all that there is[00:05:03]
