The Flipside

歌詞

The flipside of That Gentle Melancholy Feeling Plays in the half light Just before the dawn To the ragtag remains of some enchanted evening The last few fallen leaves, then Gathered by the wind But if you hold me in your arms Forget your baby’s gone Moonlight won’t shine, oh, so cold and old And in the last remaining moments before the sunlight sends us home We’ll hear the flipside of That Gentle Melancholy Feeling Eddie’s holding steady Five fingernails above the abyss Hanging on your kiss Hanging on that tough guy myth But if you tune that radio To the station we all know Moonlight won’t shine, oh, so cold and old And in the last remaining moments before the sunlight sends us home We’ll hear the flipside of That Gentle Melancholy Feeling And you can call me Mister Heartbreak If that’s what it takes I’m not leaving And I will play you Sister Morphine amd dance ‘til the end of the evening You know I’m not leaving The flipside of That Gentle Melancholy Feeling Plays in the half light Just before the dawn To the ragtag remains of some enchanted evening The last few fallen leaves, then Gathered by the wind
