The Tin Chime

(альбом: Hank - 1996)

You know the tin chime in the window
Is muted I suppose
It's amazing that I can think straight
Since you and I got old
Then phone rang and you moved closer
As we heaped up on the fire
And we dreamed of the apostles
And they're calling you a liar

And he draws upon a dream that's all
Goes over to the curtain drawn
And smiles to see a cigarette in her eyes
Her eyes

Harry Winston had a brother
He retired from the stage
As they pinched apart the curtains
He put his elbow in her face
Marcus Fischer was a good friend
I liked him really well
But his girlfriend Laurie Johnson
She was something else

And he draws upon a dream that's all
Goes over to the curtain drawn
And smiles to see a cigarette in her eyes
Her eyes
