Lyrics Times Square - Marianne Faithfull

Times Square

In a tired part of the city
Hiding from the fast talk
Watch 'Don't walk' to 'Walk'
Easy when you’re dreaming
Staring at the movies
Standing in a circle
Laughing at the wrong time
If alcohol could take me there
I’d take a shot a minute
And be there by the hour
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV
In a car taking a back seat
Staring out the window
Thinking about danger
Playing in a wrong world
Fighting but I’m not free
Talking on the telephone
Talking about you and me
If Jesus Christ could take me here
I’d fall dawn on my knees
Have no questions to His answers
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV
Alcohol could take me there
I’d take a shot a minute
And be there by the hour
Take a walk around Times Square
With a pistol in my suitcase
And my eyes on the TV
And if I die gaining my senses
Wake up in a hotel
Staring at the ceiling
