[00:26.47]Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
[00:32.56]The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
[00:38.64]Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors
[00:44.67]Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul
[00:54.10]The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dying
[00:59.76]'Cos it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain
[01:06.23]But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
[01:12.26]Of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains
[01:24.32]"Oh " she said: "Casey it's been so long since I've seen you"
[01:33.38]"Here" she said: "just a kiss to make a body smile"
[01:42.39]"See" she said: "I've put on new stockings just to please you"
[01:51.78]"Lord" she said "Casey can you only stay a while ""
[02:27.90]Casey leaves the underground
[02:31.02]And stops inside The Golden Crown
[02:33.98]For something wet to wipe away the chill
[02:37.03]That's on his bones
[02:40.34]Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
[02:46.33]Who reach for anything
[02:49.50]They can to keep from going home
[02:55.68]Standing in the corner
[02:58.04]Casey drinks his pint of bitter
[03:01.27]Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
[03:07.83]Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason
[03:13.82]Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye
[03:25.95]"Oh " she said: "I suppose you seldom think about me"
[03:34.85]"Now " she said: "now that you've a family of your own"
[03:44.16]"Still " she said: "It's so blessed good to feel your body"不过 "
[03:53.33]"Lord " she said: "Casey it's a shame to be alone ""
