Painted Bells - Boz Scaggs

[00:13.95]Winding down the Drury Lane
[00:19.68]I fall with the evening rain
[00:25.32]My thoughts with the water flow
[00:31.65]Like steam rising off the road
[00:38.49]Passers-by watch their step
[00:43.2]To see that they don't get wet
[00:49.2]And I'll just sit beneath this tree
[00:52.53]Let the drops fall all over me
[00:55.92]And watch the city lights flick on
[01:04.37]The crowds collide just out of my reach
[01:10.8]The taxi's lights flash up and down the street
[01:16.38]I sit and watch the faces go by
[01:22.29]I don't wonder where to or why
[01:27.96]Cause it's me, the rain, my warm dark pain
[01:34.2]Alone at ease and nowhere at all
[01:40.11]My thoughts just drift on back to you
[01:43.05]It seems you're here, so it must be true
[01:46.8]We never parted, you never went away
[01:55.08]So I order up another glass
[02:01.47]Not to let the moment pass
[02:08.07]Turning around in love with you
[02:14.16]Oh, I know you loved me too
[02:18.78]And it's always been this way
[02:28.17]Here sitting in my wet cafe
[02:34.56]I catch a spark across the way
[02:40.26]A string of tiny painted bells
[02:46.26]Seem to have a tale to tell
[02:52.05]A string of tiny painted bells
[02:57.87]On someone that I once knew well
[03:04.11]Is all that's left, the rest's not true
[03:07.17]I smile, I see it's really you
[03:10.44]The rain will go, and you will too
[03:18.87]And I order up another glass
[03:25.47]Not to let the moment pass
[03:31.68]Turning around in love with you
[03:37.8]Oh, it got too hard to do
[03:42.36]And it's always been this way
[03:48.15]Yes, it's always been this way
