And it's time, time, time that you lost... 

And it's Time     Time 

            Time

And it's Time      Time 

            Time

And it's Time Time Time

That you love

And it's 

    Time     Time      Time

 

              And it's                   

                                                                    Time

                      Time             Time           that you love.

Well, the smart money's on Harlow,
And the moon is in the street.
The shadow boys are breaking all the laws.
And you're east of East St. Louis,
And the wind is making speeches,
And the rain sounds like a round of applause.



Napoleon is weeping in the Carnival saloon,
His invisible fiance is in the mirror.
The band is going home,
It's raining hammers, it's raining nails.
Yes, it's true, there's nothing left for him down here.

Chorus:

And it's Time Time Time
And it's Time Time Time
And it's Time Time Time
That you love
And it's Time Time Time

And they all pretend they're Orphans,
And their memory's like a train.
You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away.
And the things you can't remember,
Tell the things you can't forget. That
History puts a saint in every dream.

                             Well she said she'd steak around
                                    Until the bandages came off.
But these mamas boys just don't know when to quit.
And Matilda asks the sailors "are those dreams
Or are those prayers?
So just close your eyes, son
And this won't hurt a bit."

Chorus

Well, things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl.
The boys just dive right off the cars
And splash into the street.







And when she's on a roll she pulls a razor
From her boot and a thousand
Pigeons fall around her feet.

So put a candle in the window
And a kiss upon his lips,
Till the dish outside the window fills with rain
Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart           And play the fiddler off till i come back again.



 Well it's time, time, time.

             And it's Time Time Time
                                          
                              And it's Time Time Time
                                                  That


You                    Love

And it's Time Time Time

                          

                                             And it's Time 
                                                                Time                                                Time


                            That you love

 

And it's time, time, time.
