[00:10.84]She said, "There are things about you I don't really understand"
[00:15.83]I am drinking in the afternoon, got whiskey on my breath
[00:20.90]And as I walk through Greenwich Village, with a suitcase full of clothes
[00:26.11]I am blinded by the afternoon and unsure where to go
[00:31.21]Yes I'm blinded by the afternoon and unsure where to go
[00:37.48]Will you come for me on days like this when I am broken down
[00:42.68]'Cause I've been strangled by an emptiness that's still choking me now
[00:47.79]I have prayed for absolution that won't ever come around
[00:53.90]So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now
[01:01.73]Then I try to call my mother, but she's not around to talk
[01:06.84]So I wander through the fading day, oblivious and lost
[01:11.89]Yes I know I'm getting older, chasing time that slips away
[01:17.09]Point my headlights towards the interstate, it's time for my escape
[01:22.17]Point my headlights towards the interstate, it's time for my escape
[01:28.55]I am sorry for the things I've done, don't try to let you down
[01:33.80]In my dreams at night I hear your voice, and I'm shaken by the sound
[01:38.66]Now I'm stranded in Los Angeles and you're all I think about
[01:45.30]So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now
[01:52.63]I hope there's a million stars above you
[01:58.33]And everything you need, I hope it finds you
[02:03.87]Every breath you breathe, hope it comes easy
[02:08.91]I hope it's easy
[02:13.98]I've got a picture in my wallet of a girl I used to know
[02:19.72]And another of my family, it's been too long since I've been home
[02:24.71]Now I'm waiting on a train, where I'll end up, God only knows
[02:29.86]Maybe I'll make my way back to her, but I guess I probably won't
[02:34.94]Maybe I'll make my way back to her, but I guess I probably won't
[02:41.38]You are somewhere far away from me, I'm here all by myself
[02:46.42]Through the space between the two of us, wish I had something else
[02:51.48]'Cause I'd surrender up most anything if I thought it'd help somehow
[02:58.10]So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now
[03:03.15]If you love me, won't you please forgive me now
