Casa Batllo - Brazzaville

[00:00.00] Casa Batllo
[00:13.35]She smelled like a thunderstorm
[00:19.20]When I met her
[00:25.98]Down in the tenderloin
[00:31.80]Sipping tea
[00:39.63]Vicodin pills, some scotch
[00:44.52]And a sweater
[00:51.15]Soon I was feeling
[00:54.30]Back  on my feet
[01:28.89]She lived in a little shack
[01:35.01]By the water
[01:41.67]The sound of the ships
[01:44.43]Would lull  us to sleep
[01:55.05]A couple of sloths  the world
[02:00.18]Had forgotten
[02:07.68]With nothing but youth
[02:09.63]& faraway dreams
[02:44.97]After the saints fly home
[02:51.15]Solomon resting in his tomb
[02:57.57]Paperbacks on a train
[03:03.78]Sugarcane fields
[03:07.02]All wet with rain
[03:10.14]Hurricane lanterns glow
[03:16.59]After the rain  the boats are slow
[03:23.07]I'd rather be left behind
[03:29.07]Nothing's as pure as an empty mind
