LYRICS
Last night I dreamed that I was dreaming of you
and from a window across the lawn I watched you undress
wearing a sunset of purple tightly woven around your hair
that rose in strangled ebony curls
moving in a yellow Bedroom light
The air is wet with sound
The faraway yelping of a wounded dog
and the ground is drinking a slow faucet leak
Your house is so soft and fading
as it soaks the black summer heat
a light goes on and a door opens
and yellow cat runs out on the stream of hall light
and into the yard
a wooden cherry scent is faintly breathing the air
I hear your champagne laugh
you wear two lavender orchids
one in your hair and one on your hip
a string of yellow carnival lights
comes on with the dusk
circling the lake in a slowly dipping halo
and I hear a Banjo tango
and you dance into the shadow of a Black Poplar Tree
I watch you as you disappear
I watch you as you disappear
I watch you as you disappear

Goodness Gracious, every time I think it can't get better, he delivers.
We’re well overdue for a new Tom Waits album 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Fully concur!
Cheers to it🍻
AMEN... was actually awake in bed in the middle of the night last night, wondering where Tom is and when we'd get a new album lol!
Last night, I dreamed that I was dreaming of a new Tom Waits album
And tour!
Tom is socially distancing himself. 😆
I love /Tom Waits. Always have... Always will. The man is a musical and poetic genius.
I love the poetry in it, delivered in a rusty voice 🖤🦋
Nice.
I absolutely adore you and your poetry Tom Waits 🥰💕
Tom's two albums of music for Robert Wilson's plays, Woyzeck & Alice, were my introduction to his music... will always hold a special place in my heart.
❤️You So Much Tom
Excellent, very fantastic💫
みーつけた😊
@@まめちゃん-h7x 見つかった🤣ニューアルバム出ないかな🥹
👍Excellent✨
Beautiful poetry, mysterious.
I love music. I am drawn towards folk and rap mainly. Tom Waits makes me proud to be alive during his reign, however. He makes me proud that I lived during the greatness.
I love him, his poetry, his music. Fantastic, terrific.
Just awesome. Such a dance performance! And Tom singing onto it. Only for that I would still live.
Aaw, aye - just what the doctor ordered
Thank you
We used to play "Small Change "on our 8 track and let play over and over. Thanks Tom
Nobody can paint a scene like Tom
What a rush to have this pop up as i'm setting here. Thanks Tom. Nicely done.
Man! Got my hopes up for a moment there. I thought this was a new song. And then I was like, "Oh, wait..."
240p, Tom?! Impressive.
Beautiful song-poem from one of my favorite Waits' albums, an unsung one if you will, filled with some of Waits and Brennan's best lyrics. Thanks Tom.
I have all your albums, saw you live at Convication Hall in Toronto in '79, you're a treasure.
Thank you for giving me such a wonderful soundtrack within my life .
¡¡Genial!!. Conoci a Tom gracias a una pelicula ''El tigre y la nieve'' ya hace como 15 años.
Absolutely amazing, as always
Love it
Loving me some Tom Waits!☆ Makes my day! Thank you for this ❤

"THE MAN" has spoken🤩🤩🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
優しく語りかけてくれているような曲で、素敵なハスキーなお声が大好きです!
いつも ありがとうございます(⋈◍>◡<◍)。✧♡
Thanks! New album please! Thanks! 😎
The yellow light and inky darkness beckons me as I move on pleasantly haunted by the memory of a champagne laugh . What a way to start my day. Thanks Mr Waits.
Beautiful and tragic.
Been teetering over the pit of despair, and such a beautiful new Tom Waits video does help soothe my soul
Amazing I love this and no video required! It’s a good video but only audio with closed eyes listening for mesmerizing depiction; rendered through the art of word and sound! 🙌🌹
Oh God (*Tom Waits),
May a new album coming ?
I hope it so !!!
Biggest fan EVER!!! don't want to imagine the world without u in it xxx
Meaningless. Bravo!
I”m off to get the new album, so grateful for the evolution of your fine talents 🙏🏽
Great ballet perfection with song
I must add my awe at his poetry. Especially the romanticism of his description of women, presnting film noir imagery with spalshes of colour. This song and Burma Shave;
My favourite lyric in the following being, "She took out her barrettes and her hair spilled out like root beer".
Her hair spilled out like root beer... So beautiful and simple and Americana... Perfect.
And with her knees up on the glove compartment She took out her barrettes and her hair spilled out like root beer And she popped her gum and arched her back Hell, Marysville ain't nothing but a wide spot in the road Some nights my heart pounds like thunder Don't know why it don't explode 'Cause everyone in this stinking town's got one foot in the grave And I'd rather take my chances out in Burma Shave.
Veramente bello!
Thank you
