Joan Baez - Prison Trilogy (Billy Rose) lyrics

I fell asleep today, it rained all afternoon

The apartment felt too small, I take up to much room

The night has worn away but she hasn't disappeared

I wanted to say good-bye, but the lonely gray of privacy abounds

Like the kings of ancient times

The light has struck, opened our eyes

And what we saw, the glory of our life unfolds before us

At the edge of all our dreams, nothing is the way it seems we used to be

As history wipes clean the slate that sits....in our eyes

In our eyes

I fell asleep today, it rained all afternoon

The apartment felt too small, I take up to much room

The night has worn away but she hasn't disappeared

I want to say, I want to say, I want to say goodbye

And you, you'll always be my friend (I fell asleep today, it rained all afternoon)

I never wanted this to end and now it has (The apartment felt too small, I take up to much room)

(The night has worn away but she hasn't disappeared)

Forgetfulness will dry the tears that fall....from our eyes (I want to say, I want to say, I want to say goodbye)

From our eyes

From our eyes
