Marquee Moon

Lyrics

I remember how the darkness doubled
 I recall, lightning struck itself
 I was listening, listening to the rain
 I was hearing, hearing something else
 ♪
 Life in the hive puckered up my night
 A kiss of death, the embrace of life
 There I stand 'neath the Marquee Moon
 Just waiting
 ♪
 I spoke to a man down at the tracks
 And I ask him how he don't go mad
 He said, "Look here, junior, don't you be so happy
 And for Heaven's sake, don't you be so sad"
 ♪
 Life in the hive puckered up my night
 A kiss of death, the embrace of life
 There I stand 'neath the Marquee Moon
 Hesitating
 ♪
 Well, a Cadillac, it pulled out of the graveyard
 Pulled up to me, all they said, "Get in, get in"
 Then, the Cadillac, it puttered back into the graveyard
 Me, I got out again
 ♪
 Life in the hive puckered up my night
 A kiss of death, the embrace of life
 There I stand 'neath the Marquee Moon
 I ain't waiting, uh-uh
 ♪
 I remember how the darkness doubled
 I recall, lightning struck itself
 I was listening, listening to the rain
 I was hearing, hearing something else
