(O Crown of Li ght, O Darkened One )
(I never thought we'd me et)
(You kiss my li ps, and then you're gon e)
(And I'm back on Boogie Street)
A sip of wi ne, a cigarette
And then it's time to go
I tidied up the kitchenette
I tu ned the old banjo
I'm wa nted at the traffic-jam
They're saving me a seat
I'm what I am, and what I am
Is ba ck on Boogie Stree t
And O my lo ve, I still recall
The pleasures that we knew
The ri vers and the waterfall
Wherei n I bathed with you
Bewi ldered by your beauty there
I'd kn eel to dry your feet
By such instructions you prepare
A ma n for Boogie Stree t
(O Crown of Li ght, Crown of Lig ht)
(O Darkened O ne, Darkened One, Darkened On e)
(I never thought we'd me et, never thought we'd meet)
(You kiss my li ps, kiss my lip s)
(And then it's do ne, then it's done, then it's done)
(And I'm ba ck, bac k on Boogie Street )
So come, my fri ends, be not afraid
We are so lightly here
It i s in love that we are made
In lo ve we disappear
Though a ll the maps of blood and flesh
Are posted on the door
There's no one who has told us yet
What Boogie Street is fo r
(O Crown of Li ght, Crown of Lig ht)
(O Darkened O ne, Darkened One, Darkened On e)
(I never thought we'd me et, never thought we'd meet)
(You kiss my li ps, kiss my lip s)
(And then it's do ne, then it's done, then it's done)
(And I'm ba ck, bac k on Boogie Street )
A sip of wi ne, a cigarette
And then it's time to go
I tidied up the kitchenette
I tu ned the old banjo
I'm wa nted at the traffic-jam
They're saving me a seat
I'm what I am, and what I am
Is ba ck on Boogie Stree t...
