Pleasant Street Lyrics
Tim Buckley
You dont remember what to say
You dont remember what to do
You dont remember where to go
You dont remember what to choose
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down
All the stony people
Walking round in christian licorice clothes
I cant hesitate
And I cant wait
For pleasant street
The sunshine reminds you of concreted skies
You thought you were flying but you opened your eyes
And you found yourself falling back to yesterdays lies
Hello, pleasant street, you know shes back again
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down
All the stony people
Walking round in christian licorice clothes
I cant hesitate
And I cant wait
For pleasant street
At twilight your lover comes to your room
Hell spin you, hell weave you round his emerald loom
And softly youll whisper all around his ear
Sweet lover, I love pleasant street
I wheel, I steal, I feel my way down to kneel
All the stony people
Walking round in christian licorice clothes
I cant hesitate
And I cant wait
For pleasant street
You dont remember what to say
You dont remember what to do
You dont remember which way to go
You dont remember who to choose
You wheel, you steal, you feel, you kneel down
