Upon this street where time has died.
The golden treat you never tried. In times of old, in days gone by. If I could catch your dancing eye. It was on the way, On the road to dreams, yeah. Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yeah. The street is cold, its trees are gone. The story's told the dark has won. Once we set sail to catch a star. We had to fail, it was too far. Chorus I felt the wind shout like a drum. You said, 'My friend, love's end has come.' It couldn't last, had to stop. You drained it all to the last drop. Chorus Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yeah. On this dark street the sun is black. The winter life is coming back. On this dark street it's cold inside. There's no retreat from time that's died. It was on the way, On the road to dreams, yeah. Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now my heart's drowned in no love streams, yeah. Now my heart's drowned in no love. |

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings. Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes. Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment. I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines; Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves. You said no strings could secure you at the station. Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows. I walked into such a sad time at the station. As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning. I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back; Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves. At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd. Consolation for the old wound now forgotten. Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes. She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings. I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd; Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves. |

Hey now baby, get into my big black car.
Hey now baby, get into my big black car. I want to just show you what my politics are. I'm a political man and I practice what I preach. I'm a political man and I practice what I preach. So don't deny me baby, not while you're in my reach. I support the left, though I'm leaning, leaning to the right. I support the left, though I'm leaning to the right. But I'm just not there when it's coming to a fight. Hey now baby, get into my big black car. Hey now baby, get into my big black car. I want to just show you what my politics are. |

Tales Of Brave Ulysses - Cream
You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun And the colors of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea And when your fingers find her she drowns you in her body Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind. The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers, And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter Her name is Aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands With tales of brave Ulysses how his naked ears were tortured By the sirens sweetly singing The tiny purple fishes run lauging through your fingers And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter |
