《Visions (20/20)》歌词

[00:00:12] Ain't it just like the night to play tricks

[00:00:17] When you're tryin to be so quiet

[00:00:22] We sit here stranded

[00:00:23] Though were all doin our best to deny it

[00:00:30] And louise holds a handful of rain temptin you to defy it

[00:00:36] Lights flicker from the opposite loft

[00:00:40] In this room the heat pipes just cough

[00:00:42] The country music station plays soft

[00:00:47] But there's nothing

[00:00:49] Really nothing

[00:00:50] To turn off

[00:00:51] Just louise and her lover so entwined

[00:00:54] And these visions of johanna that conquer my mind

[00:00:57] In the empty lot where the ladies play

[00:01:01] Blindmans bluff with the key chain

[00:01:03] And the all night girls they whisper of escapades out on the d train

[00:01:07] We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight

[00:01:11] Ask himself if its him or them that's really insane

[00:01:15] But louise she's all right

[00:01:18] She's just near

[00:01:19] She's delicate and seems like the mirror

[00:01:23] But she just makes it all too concise and too clear

[00:01:31] That johannas not here

[00:01:36] The ghost of lectricity howls in the bones of her face

[00:01:44] Where these visions of johanna have now taken my place

[00:01:51] Now

[00:01:52] Little boy lost

[00:01:54] He takes himself so seriously

[00:01:57] He brags of his misery

[00:02:00] He likes to live dangerously

[00:02:04] And when bringing her name up he speaks of her farewell kiss to me

[00:02:11] He's sure got a lot of gall to be so useless and all

[00:02:19] Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall

[00:02:25] Oh

[00:02:26] How can I explain

[00:02:29] Its so hard to get on

[00:02:31] And these visions of johanna

[00:02:35] They kept me up past the dawn

[00:02:37] Inside the museums infinity goes up on trial

[00:02:41] Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while

[00:02:47] But even mona lisa must have had the highway blues

[00:02:52] You can tell by the way she smiles

[00:02:55] See the primitive wallflower freeze

[00:02:58] When the jelly faced women all sneeze

[00:03:03] Hear the one with the mustache say jeeze

[00:03:14] I can't find my knees

[00:03:18] Jewels and binoculars hag from the head of the mule

[00:03:24] But these visions of johanna they make it all seem so cruel

[00:03:29] The peddler now speaks to the countess whos pretending to care for him

[00:03:35] Saying name me someone that's not a parasite and ill go out

[00:03:41] And say a prayer for him

[00:03:43] But like louise always says ya can't look at much can ya man

[00:03:47] As she

[00:03:47] Herself

[00:03:48] Prepares for him

[00:03:51] And madonna she still has not showed

[00:03:53] We see this empty cage now corrode

[00:03:56] Where her cape of the stage once had flowed

[00:03:59] The fiddler

[00:04:00] He now steps to the road

[00:04:03] He writes evrythings been returned which was owed

[00:04:07] On the back of the fish truck that loads

[00:04:12] While my conscience explodes

[00:04:18] The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain

[00:04:26] And these visions of johanna are now all that remain
