A Night This Side Of Dying - Carole King (卡洛·金)[00:00:00]
I remember one young sister with rainbows in her eyes[00:00:18]
Standing on a corner with the afternoon's supply[00:00:27]
She spoke of other places perhaps a better road[00:00:35]
Then she asked if I could tell her where they kept the mother lode[00:00:44]
Like a night this side of dying[00:00:52]
Her day's inside the dropper on the shelf[00:00:57]
When she hears her lifeline crying[00:01:06]
Not a thing you say can stop her[00:01:10]
When she just can't stop herself[00:01:14]
I remember that July the panic and the heat[00:01:33]
The savage shine of summer the strychnine in the street[00:01:42]
The way they sold each other for a favor in glassine[00:01:51]
The best of friends sold brothers for a dime of quinine dreams[00:02:00]
Like a night this side of dying[00:02:08]
Her day's inside the dropper on the shelf[00:02:12]
Like the shelter she's been buying[00:02:21]
Not a thing I've got can save her[00:02:25]
When she just can't save herself[00:02:29]
She just can't save herself[00:02:36]
