Heavy Hours

Outside your window it waited for you

You didn't come

You never do

In the city in the winter time

The snow and the rime

Cover the isolation

Yesterday, baby, they told you the news

They meant no harm

They never do

You can take it any way you want

It comes and it goes

Rising in broken waves and dreams

Heavy hours passing by the way

Devil knows how I'm trying, babe

I hear you breathing so steady and true

The whole night long

The whole night through

Your lungs' soft heaving in slow drunken time

Falling with mine forever here

Heavy hours dragging by the way

Devil knows how I'm trying, baby

Heavy hours passing by the way

Devil knows how hard I'm trying, babe
