00:00:02Stay good.
00:00:04That's great.
00:00:30I haven't got the time, said I spied it to the fly, but I let you dance on my way,
00:00:38man, if you could bring your sister by, I let you dance on my way, man, if you could bring
00:00:46your sister by, I haven't got the time, said I read it to his page, so you can turn over
00:00:55your new leaf and I can start to ignite.
00:01:00You can turn over your new leaf and I can start to ignite, like ice cream sundae at a winter
00:01:11night, you need my heart, I feel your right.
00:01:25I haven't got the time, the wolf said to the sheep, so let's just lay it down natural, I swear
00:01:34I'll go to sleep.
00:01:37Let's just lay it down natural, I swear I'll go to sleep.
00:01:43Let's just lay it down natural, I swear I'll go to sleep.
00:02:12Make naked vows, but you can bend a bit for me, like ice cream sundae at a winter night, you
00:02:24need my heart, I feel your right.
00:02:30Let's just lay it down natural, I swear I'll go to sleep.
00:03:17You can see me standing down by Carter's Lane
00:03:25You can see me standing close by Crows and May
00:03:33If you see me turning, call me, I'll come back again
00:03:40Just like a boomerang in time I'm on a slice of three
00:03:45Yeah, boomerang in time I'm on a slice of three
00:04:04Take care of the clouds, maybe, baby, that threaten me with rain
00:04:12Take care of the clouds, maybe, that threaten me with rain
00:04:19If you see me falling, hold on, I'll come up again
00:04:26Just like a boomerang in time I'm on a slice of three
00:04:31Yeah, boomerang in time I'm on a slice of three
00:04:50Upright in the heatwave, laid back into the gale
00:04:58Upright in the heatwave, laid back into the gale
00:05:06Cover me in cold clouds If I should look too pale
00:05:35I've got a far-ground woman living close to me
00:05:43Got a fine brown woman living close to me Tied down to the ground so tight I wish I could
00:05:56break free
00:05:58Just like a boomerang and sun the mama strikes you through the air
00:06:32In reasonable distance again
00:06:37These are shorter than time
00:06:39Eastrus deer
00:06:39If you look at in front of it Dios
00:06:54I encourage you to watch another time
00:06:57Which time to draw power
00:29:58in the house
00:30:00cheap affairs
00:30:02under cover
00:30:03diving beneath
00:30:05these seas
00:30:07I don't care
00:30:11could have
00:30:12wrecked her
00:30:14might have
00:30:16checked her
00:30:18wish I could wish
00:30:20she was not there
00:30:22but still
00:30:24can't get down
00:30:25get down
00:30:28to the river
00:30:29get down
00:30:31get down
00:30:32get down
00:30:32to the river
00:30:37I'll be that love
00:30:38on Friday night
00:30:40for a year of time
00:30:42you don't have to
00:30:45know if I care for life
00:30:46but I'm thanks
00:30:47time for a friend of mine
00:31:05I'll be that love
00:31:07I don't know. Let's look out there.
00:31:37I call, and in the morning I will go hard. And when night time comes around, she gets a map,
00:31:46we set her map, I'll knock them down.
00:31:48Well, I'm lost, too bad. For sure, she's sad. We ate our bill. She's sixteen, I'm thirty-two, I love
00:32:02her still. If I get jealous, she walks and screams. If I stood up, I'd lose my seat.
00:32:10And if you're dicing with a heart, I'll see you finish long before you get to start. And I'm still
00:32:18lost, too bad. For sure, she's sad. We ate our bill. She's sixteen, I'm thirty-two, I love her still.
00:32:32She feeds my love. She keeps her coffee boiling on the stove. Sometimes we're right, sometimes we're wrong. Sometimes we
00:32:45fight, but come the night we get along.
00:32:47I'm still lost, too bad. For sure, she's sad. We ate our bill. She's sixteen, I'm thirty-two, I love
00:33:01her still.
00:33:17And when we're cruising in the automobile. She says she could, I said I wouldn't miss for real. We find
00:33:25a nice, quiet spot and settle down. And leave the honky-tonky walks in time.
00:33:30One lost, too bad. For sure, she's sad. We ate our bill. She's sixteen, I'm thirty-two, I love her
00:33:45still. She's sixteen, I'm thirty-two, I love her still.
00:34:03One lost, too bad.
00:34:30One lost, too bad.
00:34:32One lost, too bad.
00:34:35One lost, too bad.
00:34:36One lost, too bad.
00:34:39One lost, too bad.
00:34:39One lost, too bad.
00:34:40One lost, too bad.
00:34:41One lost, too bad.
00:34:45One lost, too bad.
00:34:48One lost, too bad.
00:34:51One lost, too bad.
00:34:52One lost, too bad.
00:34:56One lost, too bad.
00:35:00Many spies
00:35:03Smooth-faced men tell many lies
00:35:07Have you watched her fingers die
00:35:11In this earth?
00:35:15This all they say
00:35:25Sadness behind a man
00:35:27It ain't gone still
00:35:28Trapped his golden fingers
00:35:31In the circuit still
00:35:33Says he can't stay
00:35:35But you know he will
00:35:37Is this just out of hand
00:35:39Is this out of hand
00:35:42Out of hand
00:36:11Listen to a boy with big ideas
00:36:16Play his tape a simple tune
00:36:20Find a way for future plans
00:36:24It's contraband
00:36:28Y'all contraband
00:36:34Can't seem to see the right road
00:36:38Don't seem to live in jail no more
00:36:43Cockney fights
00:36:44And whole lives need to fight
00:36:46Can you ignore
00:36:48Can you ignore
00:36:51Can you ignore
00:37:07To the fans
00:37:09Is this really making sense
00:37:12Or is this
00:37:13Out of hand
00:37:14Just out of hand
00:37:26This life's a human sacrifice
00:37:28This life's a human sacrifice
00:37:30No home to call my own
00:37:33No offence
00:37:36No offence to this
00:37:37Audience
00:37:38But honey
00:37:41This show's been a show
00:37:51What he knows
00:37:53About his pride
00:37:56Has been a split
00:37:58Of mine
00:38:00I could say more
00:38:02But I would be unkind
00:38:04Cause you'll understand
00:38:06You little man
00:38:17Listen to a song
00:38:19What I could do
00:38:22Play a tune
00:38:23With all the heck
00:38:24You dance around
00:38:28Every day
00:38:33Play it like a band
00:38:37Play you
00:38:38I don't know
00:39:03You're like
00:39:03He's constantly
00:39:04No, he's constantly
00:39:04He has the man
00:39:05I do
00:39:07One, two, three, four.
00:39:26Hello in there, I'm all alone now.
00:39:30Why don't you feel sorry for me?
00:39:34It's six months since the wedding and it's still not fading
00:39:37And I wonder if you're happy
00:39:41I remember when time stood still one morning on a magical tree
00:39:49We waited for the stars to fall or for the sky to spring
00:39:57You and your husband, you haven't figured out right
00:40:04He hates me, it's twenty-four hours a day
00:40:06But you'd dream my name the night that's alive
00:40:11There's no point at all in a love affair
00:40:14Where the feet don't fit their shoes
00:40:18There's no point at all in playing a game
00:40:21Where the winners always lose
00:40:26Your sister says you look tired
00:40:28But your mother, she says you look fine
00:40:33Your father's got a new suit ready for the Christmas night
00:40:41I have a bottle of wine
00:40:48They go to a bar where the music is loud
00:40:51And the girls, they don't give a damn
00:40:54End up telling stories starting once upon a time
00:40:57About a woman
00:41:02And a man
00:41:15Again I'll give them that old routine
00:41:18About how lonely inside I am
00:41:22Perhaps I'll find me a friend for the night
00:41:25Who says she'll help me
00:41:31If she comes
00:41:51I don't know
00:41:53I don't know
00:42:04I don't know
00:42:06I don't know
00:42:07I don't know
00:42:10I don't know
00:42:11And if I don't give it to me
00:42:13I don't know
00:42:19I don't know
00:42:19I don't know
00:42:20I don't know
00:42:20I don't know
00:42:23What else are we going?
00:42:24Well, you know...
00:43:10Oh, when I'm walking down the highway
00:43:16I just believe I want to just my...
00:43:24Oh, when I'm walking down the highway
00:43:28I just believe I want to just my...
00:43:37I wish my baby'd give me some lovin'
00:43:40She left me inside a bedroom
00:43:51Sometimes I feel like a mother's child
00:44:01I feel like a mother's child
00:44:04I feel like a mother's child
00:44:19I know what you mean
00:44:21I know what you mean
00:44:53I feel like a mother's child
00:45:13I feel like a mother's child
00:45:13I feel like a mother and her child
00:45:37Are we there?
00:45:48The bully opened his mouth and his teeth were shining
00:45:52He hated his father and he laughed at his mother
00:45:56His father bought pictures to hang on the wall
00:45:59Mummy knew nothing about nothing
00:46:02For the bully had pen knives he'd taken from small bodies
00:46:09In the corners of toilets they'd let him have their toys
00:46:12His father made money, made money so
00:46:15Both of the bastards made money feel safe
00:46:21What's that to do with us?
00:46:24He only learnt it at his father's leave
00:46:27He had to learn to be tough
00:46:32It's a hard old world you see
00:46:40The bully was nineteen, his boots were all shiny
00:46:44His muscles were bulging but his brain was tiny
00:46:48His father had died in a train crashing through
00:46:51Mummy felt part of herself dying too
00:47:01The bully's eyes narrowed as he followed the plaques
00:47:05It was easy to twist the knife in their backs
00:47:08It was easy to drink till he felt no fear
00:47:11It was simple to see why no one came near
00:47:17What's that to do with us?
00:47:20He only learnt it at his father's leave
00:47:24He had to learn it at his father's leave
00:47:38He had to learn to be tough
00:48:03It's a hard old world you see
00:48:08It's a hard old world you see
00:48:10It's a hard old world you see
00:48:22What's it?
00:48:23Stephen Shannon
00:48:23Stephen Shannon
00:48:25No, you're very much, thank you
00:48:33I'm tired of walking around
00:48:38Police will pick you up if you don't barge out
00:48:43It's a respectable kind of town
00:48:48I really thought you cared for me
00:48:53And I found out about you too
00:48:57Why can't we simply live our lives
00:49:01Like decent folks do
00:49:07Like decent folks do
00:49:23They tell me he's married with a child and a wife
00:49:28And he beats them like drunks sometimes will
00:49:32He doesn't understand judges playing with life
00:49:37And he has it in his mind to kill
00:49:42I really thought you cared for me
00:49:47Now I don't know what's true
00:49:53Why can't we simply live our lives
00:49:58Like decent folks do
00:50:02Like decent folks do
00:50:05You took some hours and some pills to get to sleep
00:50:27He wasn't there to hear you
00:50:30He wasn't there to lift your head up like I was
00:50:36He wasn't there to call for help
00:50:39Because
00:50:45I really thought you cared for me
00:50:47I really thought you cared for me
00:50:49As I cared for you
00:50:53Why can't we simply live our lives
00:50:56Like decent folks do
00:51:01Like decent folks do
00:51:13You're moving across to the nice part of town
00:51:17You promised to write but never do
00:51:21I look for letters that never arrive
00:51:25I shouldn't but I worry about you
00:51:30I really thought you cared for me
00:51:33I really thought you cared for me
00:51:35There was a truth I never knew
00:51:41Why don't we simply live our lives
00:51:44Like decent folks do
00:51:49Like decent folks do
00:52:07Three o'clock in the morning comes
00:52:10I'm tired of walking around
00:52:14Police will pick you up if you don't watch out
00:52:21With a respectable, kind town
00:52:29Love you
00:52:38Thank you
00:52:46Hear, hear, hear it
00:52:50This one's called White Night and me and the band would like to thank you very much for being a
00:52:55great audience.
00:52:56We hope you enjoyed the audition.
00:53:19She helps them cut the cards from the spittin' sawdust bars.
00:53:28She's easily the pin-arm girl, the prettiest by far.
00:53:35The talks of cars and darts and drinking, anything but really thinking.
00:53:44She needs to feel reality sinking, like a faded shooting storm.
00:53:51Where are you tonight, White Night?
00:54:01Where are you tonight, White Night?
00:54:09The same old stuff each night.
00:54:13The same old gin to get you tight.
00:54:18Pretending to be fast asleep, when he turns out alive.
00:54:26Is this all there is she muses?
00:54:30Wasting youth in some backstreet boozer.
00:54:34Hoping they will not refuse her.
00:54:38One more train to make it right.
00:54:41And where are you tonight, White Night?
00:54:51Where are you tonight, my White Night?
00:54:58One armed bandit she caresses.
00:55:02Gives her his battalion message.
00:55:06She's worried by his sound advice.
00:55:11Is this her only friend?
00:55:15Better leave things as they lie.
00:55:18Wait for time to do the dying.
00:55:22Wait for time to do the dying.
00:55:24Laugh to stop yourself from crying.
00:55:27One more day we'll make it right.
00:55:30And where are you tonight, White Night?
00:55:39Where are you tonight, White Night?
00:55:47Where are you tonight, my White Night?
00:55:57And your foi tonight, my friend will be back and Drughal.
00:55:58I'm so sorry.
00:55:59And when you're Ahi, I will be back to the sorority.
00:55:59I'm so sorry.
00:56:00I'm so sorry.
00:56:01I'm so sorry.
00:56:01I'm so sorry.
00:56:01I'm so sorry.
00:56:01But I'm so sorry if you're quiet.
00:56:09I'm so sorry.
00:56:09I'm so sorry.
00:56:10Why are you tonight, White Night?
00:56:34Born in beauty, born in love, born in love
00:56:41Born to the world from your mother and me
00:56:47Born to survive through the trials of life
00:56:52Born beneath the family tree
00:56:59And the heart of the storm won't touch you my darlings
00:57:06Let the heart of the storm run free
00:57:13All of your days will be filled with grace
00:57:18Let the heart of the storm run free
00:57:35Always together, walking hand in hand
00:57:41Sharing the secrets and the fears through the years
00:57:48Love is a jewel, handle it with care
00:57:54But trust is a treasure that's dear
00:58:00And the heart of the storm won't touch you my darlings
00:58:07Let the heart of the storm run free
00:58:14All of your days will be filled with grace
00:58:20Let the heart of the storm run free
00:58:50Most days we're separated
00:58:54But you never leave my heart
00:58:57Sisters that hold to me
00:59:01Just like I used to do
00:59:03Even when you're miles away
00:59:07We never are apart
00:59:10How can I not be befriended to you
00:59:15And the heart of the storm won't touch you my darlings
00:59:23Let the heart of the storm run free
00:59:29All of your days will be filled with grace
00:59:35All of your days will be filled with grace
00:59:36Let the heart of the storm run free
00:59:48If I could shelter you
00:59:51From all life's harm
00:59:54It would stop you from growing
00:59:57The way you need to go
01:00:00And if you see another sign
01:00:04And if you see another sign
01:00:05Pointing somewhere else that's fine
01:00:07Take care, take my love
01:00:10Take that love
01:00:12And the heart of the storm won't touch you my darlings
01:00:19Heart of the storm run free
01:00:26All of your days will be filled with grace
01:00:31Let the heart of the storm run free
01:00:37Let the heart of the storm run free
01:00:43I can't believe it
