Boogie Street

Oh crown of light, oh darkened one

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips oh, and then you're gone

And I'm back on Boogie Street

A sip of wine, a cigarette

And then it's time to go

I tidied up the kitchenette

I tuned the old banjo

I'm wanted at the traffic jam

They're saving me a seat

I'm what I am and what I am

Is back on Boogie Street

And oh my love, I still recall

The pleasures that we knew

The rivers and the waterfall

Wherein I bathed with you

Bewildered by your beauty there

I'd kneel to dry your feet

By such instructions you prepare

A man for Boogie Street

Oh crown of light, oh darkened one

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips and then it's done

And I'm back, back on Boogie Street

So come my friends, be not afraid

We are so lightly here

It is in love that we are made

In love we disappear

Though all the maps of blood and flesh

Are posted on the door

There's no one who as told us yet

What Boogie Street is for

Oh crown of light, oh darkened one

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips and then it's done

And I'm back, back on Boogie Street

A sip of wine, a cigarette

And then it's time to go

I tidied up the kitchenette

I tuned the old banjo

I'm wanted at the traffic jam

They're saving me a seat

I'm what I am and what I am

Is back on Boogie Street
