Got in later than I thought...he just wouldn't quit singing...so I'm
going to sleep in, relatively speaking...but don't let that stop
you...dig in to the Kenosha Kid passage...Waits sang a version of this
tune that was worth twice the price of admission...It is an appropriate
playlist addition for the opening of GRGR(4)...now I'm off to some
dreams of my own:
Innocent When You Dream
(Tom Waits)
The bats are in the belfry
the dew is on the moor
where are the arms that held me
and pledged her love before
and pledged her love before
Chorus:
It's such a sad old feeling
the fields are soft and green
it's memories that I'm stealing
but you're innocent when you dream
when you dream
you're innocent when you dream
Running through the graveyard
we laughed my friends and I
we swore we'd be together
until the day we died
until the day we died
Repeat chorus
I made a golden promise
that we would never part
I gave my love a locket
and then I broke her heart
and then I broke her heart
Repeat chorus
