It was your birthday yesterday |
| [00:05.85] |
I gave a gift that almost took your breath away |
| [00:12.44] |
But to be honest, I nearly left it on the train |
| [00:19.38] |
For your lover give some time |
| [00:27.50] |
You talk forever on the phone |
| [00:32.93] |
To your mother and with my thoughts I'm left alone |
| [00:39.80] |
Now and then I think how strange our love has grown |
| [00:46.87] |
For your lover give some time |
| [00:54.45] |
I will give up these cigarettes |
| [00:59.71] |
Stay at home and watch you mend a tear in your dress |
| [01:06.86] |
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest |
| [01:13.30] |
And be your lover for all time |
| [01:20.82] |
Maybe I will drink a little less |
| [01:26.90] |
Come home early and not complain about the day |
| [01:33.62] |
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then |
| [01:40.29] |
For your lover give some time |
| [01:49.73] |
|
| [02:15.41] |
I think of places that I've seen |
| [02:21.34] |
A skipping stone across the ocean I have been |
| [02:27.99] |
A rootless man with no one else to share my dreams |
| [02:34.36] |
And for my lover gave no time |
| [02:42.53] |
Here's a toast to you, Helene Helene, |
| [02:48.31] |
To all the cinemas we ran in from the rain |
| [02:54.85] |
Laughing, clutching soaking newspapers to your face |
| [03:01.88] |
And for your love you gave some time |
| [03:09.82] |
I will give up these cigarettes |
| [03:15.21] |
Stay at home and watch you mend the tears in your dress |
| [03:21.98] |
Have your name in a rose tattooed across my chest |
| [03:28.56] |
And be your lover for all time |
| [03:35.64] |
Maybe I will drink a little less |
| [03:42.23] |
Come home early and not complain about the day |
| [03:48.80] |
And give you flowers from the graveyard now and then |
| [03:55.65] |
And for my lover give some time |
| [04:02.43] |
For your lover give some time |
| [04:07.73] |
