Nice and Blue (Pt 2) - MeWithoutYou[00:00:01]

You were a song I couldn＇t sing[00:00:13]

Caught like a bear by the bees[00:00:16]

With its hand in a hive[00:00:18]

Who complains of the sting[00:00:20]

When I＇m lucky I got out alive [00:00:21]

A life at best left half-behind[00:00:25]

The taste of the honey[00:00:28]

Still sweet on my tongue[00:00:29]

And I＇d run Lord knows I＇ve tried[00:00:31]

But there＇s no place on Earth[00:00:34]

I can hide from the wrong I＇ve done[00:00:35]

Then I saw a mountain and I saw a city[00:00:49]

Steadily sinking but suspiciously calm[00:00:52]

It wasn＇t an end it wasn＇t a beginning[00:00:55]

But a ceaseless stumbling on[00:01:01]

There strapped like a watch on my wrist[00:01:02]

That＇s finished with gold but can＇t tell time [00:01:04]

Was all or what little pleasure exists[00:01:07]

Seductive sold and useless mine[00:01:09]

Our horse was fast and first from the gate[00:01:19]

With the lead of a length at the sound of the gun[00:01:22]

Ant the last of our cash laid[00:01:25]

Down to fate (at 17 to 1)[00:01:27]

But the final stretch in the rear of the pack[00:01:31]

That nag limping bad in the back[00:01:34]

We reluctantly gave all the money we＇d saved[00:01:36]

A fifth to the commonwealth[00:01:40]

And the rest to the track [00:01:41]

Then I saw a forest grow in the city[00:01:43]

And a driftwood wall of birdhouse gourds[00:01:46]

And I＇m still waiting to meet a girl like my mom[00:01:49]

(who＇s closer to my age)[00:01:51]

The true light of my eyes is a Pearl[00:01:55]

Equally emptied to equally shine[00:01:57]

And all or what little joy in the world[00:02:01]

Seemed suddenly simple and endlessly mine[00:02:03]

I was once the wine[00:02:48]

I was once the wine[00:02:50]

I was once the wine and you were the wineglass [00:02:53]

I was once the wine[00:03:00]

I was once the wine[00:03:02]

I was once the wine[00:03:05]

When you held me [00:03:09]

But G-d became the glass [00:03:12]

All things left are emptiness[00:03:14]

But oh little girl you＇re just a little girl[00:03:18]

If you look out and see a trace[00:03:23]

Of a dark red that was once my face[00:03:26]

In the clarity of such grace [00:03:28]

You＇ll forget all about me[00:03:33]
