[00:00:00] Bedsitter Images - Al Stewart

[00:00:03] Written by：Al Stewart

[00:00:06] The subway station's closed again

[00:00:10] Sleeps beneath it's veil of rain

[00:00:13] My footprints

[00:00:14] Broken trail behind

[00:00:16] Steals the nightlights

[00:00:18] From my mind

[00:00:19] The dark deserted streets then clear

[00:00:23] Today has lived and died in here

[00:00:26] So I leave the chapel gloom

[00:00:29] To find the shelter of my tiny room

[00:00:34] But it's alright

[00:00:36] While the lights

[00:00:38] Of the city shine so bright

[00:00:41] It's all

[00:00:42] Right till the last

[00:00:44] Winding train fades from sight

[00:00:48] Then alone in my room

[00:00:51] I must stay to lose or win

[00:00:54] While these wild bedsitter images come back

[00:00:59] To hem me in

[00:01:09] The panneled patterns on the door

[00:01:12] Chase shivering shadows

[00:01:15] To the floor

[00:01:16] Upon the pillow

[00:01:18] Worn and thin

[00:01:19] The memories of hopes begin

[00:01:22] The carpet

[00:01:23] With it's flowers and shredding

[00:01:25] Spires a foot before my bed

[00:01:29] The crack that won't return again

[00:01:32] Advancing

[00:01:33] Through my broken window pane

[00:01:37] But it's alright

[00:01:39] While the lights

[00:01:41] Of the city shine so bright

[00:01:44] It's all

[00:01:45] Right till the last winding train fades from sight

[00:01:50] Then alone in my room

[00:01:54] I must stay to lose or win

[00:01:57] While these wild bedsitter images come back

[00:02:02] To hem me in

[00:02:12] The friends I've left back home all write

[00:02:15] With laughing words that warm my sight

[00:02:18] Saying

[00:02:19] Tell us

[00:02:19] How's the city life

[00:02:21] I reply

[00:02:23] And say just fine why

[00:02:24] And so you see I can't go back

[00:02:28] 'Til I either win or crack

[00:02:30] I'm standing

[00:02:32] In a one way street

[00:02:34] The stage is set

[00:02:35] The story incomplete

[00:02:40] But it's alright

[00:02:41] While the lights

[00:02:43] Of the city shine so bright

[00:02:46] It's all

[00:02:47] Right till the last winding train fades from sight

[00:02:52] Then alone in my room

[00:02:56] I must stay to lose or win

[00:02:59] While these wild bedsitter images come back

[00:03:04] To hem me in
