Testo Make Right the Time Part I - Danny Schmidt

Testo della canzone Make Right the Time Part I (Danny Schmidt), tratta dall'album Make Right the Time

She told me that her name was Cleopatra when we met

And I didn't mind at all though she was lying I suspect

I told her I'm the emperor of all that I survey

"You can call me Alexander" -- well, she said that that was great

Going round, this old mobile, going round

It's just as easy talking up as talking down

She told me 'bout a boyfriend who'd proposed in middle school

And stories of her family I could tell she wished were true

It was Christmas in the Catskills and Easter on the cape

And Mama married money, and Daddy by mistake

Going round, this old mobile, going round

It's just as easy talking up as talking down

And I told her 'bout the time I got arrested in the park

For kissing after curfew and then for talking smart

And as they drove me to the station house, in cuffs and in conceit

I found a quarter bag of weed that'd been stuffed down in the seat

Going round, this old mobile, going round

It's just as easy talking up as talking down

I told her 'bout the incident with fireworks and doves

And she told me about Somoa and lilikoi and love

And we compared our notes on marketplaces, Brownsville and Bombay

And how the story of your life is always yours to trade away

Going round, this old mobile, going round

It's just as easy talking up as talking down

But when things got quiet, she got far

And I caught a tiny glimpse of Cleopatra's heart

Curled up in candlelight at home

And her fingers smelled like cigarettes and another night alone

There comes a time in every barroom night when the light starts getting strange

And the shadows and the highlights start to cross and start to change

In the hollow of her cheekbones hid both fantasy and flight

As she kissed me on the lips and disappeared into the night

Going round, this old mobile, going round

It's just as easy talking up as talking down
