Underneath the swirling light of jasmine tea and smoke
you traced my face up on the barroom wall and you tried to intimidate me as you drank your drinks and joked saying it takes more than clean hands to catch angels when they fall Well I'll keep that in mind Come on darlin' oh my my come and hear my 23rd Street lullaby got a bottle of wine, a bag of tricks there's a place for you under my fingertips there's a place for you, oh my my up on the rooftops of my 23rd Street lullaby Me and you on the avenue, on a summer night bass and drums and the traffic hums and I feel all right Well come and walk beside me darlin' and I'll take my place I'm a little low on courage, but I'm high on faith and I feel so fine Come on darlin', oh my my come and hear my 23rd Street lullaby got a bottle of wine, a bag of tricks there's a place for you under my fingertips there's a place for you, oh my my up on the rooftops of my 23rd Street lullaby sha la la la la la la la sha la la la sha la la la la la la la sha la la la Got a downtown heart, got a love so sweet got a tone poem and a funky little beat got a music box, it's soft inside and in your arms I come alive so don't you worry now, say you will I'll be waiting here until you take a chance, take a risk I'll take what's broken and I'll take what's fixed Me and you on the avenue, on a summer night bass and drums and the traffic hums, and I feel all right Come on darlin', oh my my Come and hear my 23rd Street lullaby got a bottle of wine, a bag of tricks there's a place for you under my fingertips there's a place for you, oh my my up on the rooftops of my eyes want to take a chance, take a risk I'll take what's broken and I'll take what's fixed I can't hear you Let me hear you my 23rd Street lullaby |

So all that loneliness for a moment is through
and now it's going to take time to find some faith for you you've got a history of crash landings coming down on nothing but a prayer and finding no one there to break the fall so you got all twisted up inside got a new hairdo and a big disguise till no one could recognize you at all Well that's all right that's o.k. I'm going to love you any which way that's o.k. ... that's all right we'll be each other's medicine tonight Well the path of resistance for a moment now has cleared and you want to open up but you're locked down shut with fear because you know the lonely corner where the blind man begs for change you've carried that cup and cane before and you never get what you think you deserve so you settle for token kindness and sympathetic words anything to ease the pain Well that's all right that's o.k. I'm going to have you any which way that's o.k. ... that's all right we'll be each other's medicine tonight Well all the stopped clocks are ticking it's time I do believe when you've got nothing left to give and you're too paralysed to receive when you're unfamiliar to yourself and a stranger to everybody else when you're too lost and too gone to see Well that's all right that's o.k. I'll recognize you any which way that's o.k. ... that's all right we'll be each other's medicine tonight |

Standing at your doorstep darlin'
what can I do you're a part of me forever like a troublesome tattoo I lay awake at night curse your name into the dark while the memory of you rings like a church bell through my heart then a cold rain starts to fall Oh Romeo remember how we'd listen to the radio when the girls sang baby baby you know it's true ain't no one in this world for me but you Now I'm a believer darlin' I believe in heaven above and when I look in your eyes I believe I still see love well maybe I will never know just why you walked away did you think I wasn't good enough or were you just afraid of the cold rain that's fallen all around us now Oh Romeo Now I'm living here in Chelsea In somebody else's arms got a ring around my finger diamond snake around my arm don't know if he knows about you darlin' I don't even care sometimes he pretend to reach for me and I pretend I'm there while that cold rain has fallen all around us now listen Oh Romeo remember how we'd listen to the radio when the girls sang baby baby you know it's true ain't no one in this world for me but you well there is no one |
