[00:00:00] Year Of The Cat (Live 1981) - Al Stewart

[00:00:01] Written by：A. Stewart/P. White

[00:00:34] On a morning from a Bogart movie

[00:00:38] In a country where they turn back time

[00:00:42] You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre

[00:00:46] Contemplating a crime

[00:00:50] She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running

[00:00:54] Like a water colour in the rain

[00:00:58] Don't bother asking for explanations

[00:01:01] She'll just tell you that she came

[00:01:04] In the year of the cat

[00:01:21] She doesn't give you time for questions

[00:01:25] As she locks up your arm in hers

[00:01:29] And you follow till your sense of which direction

[00:01:33] Completely disappears

[00:01:37] By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls

[00:01:41] There's a hidden door she leads you to

[00:01:45] These days she says I feel my life

[00:01:48] Just like a river running through

[00:01:52] The year of the cat

[00:02:09] She looks at you so cooly

[00:02:12] And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea

[00:02:16] She comes in incense and patchouli

[00:02:21] So you take her to find what's waiting inside

[00:02:28] The year of the cat

[00:03:50] Well morning comes and you're still with her

[00:03:54] And the bus and the tourists are gone

[00:03:58] And you've thrown away the choice and lost your ticket

[00:04:02] So you have to stay on

[00:04:06] But the drum beat strains of the night remain

[00:04:10] In the rhythm of the new born day

[00:04:14] You know sometime you're bound to leave her

[00:04:17] But for now you're going to stay

[00:04:20] In the year of the cat

[00:04:36] In the year of the cat
