[00:00:00] Porchlight - Buffalo Tom

[00:00:01] Written by：Bill Janovitz/Tom Maginnis/Chris Colbourn

[00:00:13] Hey when the need becomes too strong or long

[00:00:17] And drawn out for me to take

[00:00:19] Like a cigarette burn to the fleshy turbines of my heart

[00:00:25] That faded afternoon floats breezily into my memory

[00:00:30] Cool shafts of light appear and I'm left here

[00:00:34] Standing naked on my own

[00:00:48] Your voice is small on my voice mail system

[00:00:52] A million miles away

[00:00:54] But if I turned it off

[00:00:56] I would not hear the little things you say

[00:01:00] The world must chill

[00:01:02] And like a king I ring up old acquaintances

[00:01:06] It's like the man says I ain't here on business

[00:01:10] It's all work anyway

[00:01:13] On any other day

[00:01:15] They say the light has got no equal

[00:01:19] On any other day

[00:01:36] The date's irrelevant but she was drunk

[00:01:39] In the heat of the June night

[00:01:41] The faces in the windows shouts rang out

[00:01:45] Into dawn's early light

[00:01:47] The flailing arms and scrambling eggs I fled

[00:01:51] On my two shambling legs

[00:01:53] I gotta go I said

[00:01:55] They both looked dead

[00:01:57] On any other day

[00:02:00] On any other day

[00:02:02] They say the light has got no equal

[00:02:06] On any other day

[00:02:12] On any other day

[00:02:14] They say the light has got no equal

[00:02:18] On any other day

[00:02:35] The fire blazed away

[00:02:37] The kitchen porch was all that remained

[00:02:41] And I'm out here alone

[00:02:43] Beat up and pissed

[00:02:45] Until this very day

[00:02:47] That old hotel rang back in fuzzy time

[00:02:50] And I was ravaged to the bone

[00:02:53] Your voice got smaller 'til I realized

[00:02:57] It was gone

[00:03:00] On any other day

[00:03:01] They'd say the light has got no equal

[00:03:06] On any other day

[00:03:12] On any other day

[00:03:13] I swear the light has got no equal

[00:03:18] On any other day

[00:03:34] I realize

[00:03:40] I realize

[00:03:53] It was gone
