Suzanne Vega - Marlene On The Wall (Live)(2007)

[00:08.52] Even if I am in love with you
[00:10.88] All this to say, what's it to you
[00:12.63] Observe the blood, the rose tattoo
[00:14.98] Of the fingerprints on me from you
[00:17.25] Other evidence has shown that
[00:19.23] You and I are still alone
[00:21.07] We skirt around the danger zone
[00:23.27] And don't talk about it later
[00:25.45] Marlene watches from the wall
[00:27.96] Her mocking smile says it all
[00:30.16] She records the rise and fall
[00:32.15] Of every soldier passing
[00:34.26] But the only soldier now is me
[00:36.32] I'm fighting things I cannot see
[00:38.79] I think it's called my destiny
[00:40.83] That I am changing
[00:43.35] Marlene on the wall
[00:47.28]
[00:51.24] Well, I walked to your house in the afternoon
[00:53.28] By the butcher shop with the sawdust strewn
[00:55.53] Don't give away the goods too soon
[00:57.62] Is what she might have told me
[00:59.54] And I tried so hard to resist
[01:01.60] When you held me in your handsome fist
[01:03.88] And reminded me of the night we kissed
[01:06.07] And of why I should be leaving
[01:08.22] Marlene watches from the wall
[01:10.83] Her mocking smile says it all
[01:12.82] She records the rise and fall
[01:15.22] Of every soldier passing
[01:17.19] But the only soldier now is me
[01:19.31] I'm fighting things I cannot see
[01:21.73] I think it's called my destiny
[01:23.87] That I am changing
[01:26.55] Marlene on the wall
[01:29.98]
[01:51.32] Marlene watches from the wall
[01:53.42] Her mocking smile says it all
[01:55.88] She records the rise and fall
[01:58.19] Of every soldier passing
[02:00.00] But the only soldier now is me
[02:02.13] I'm fighting things I cannot see
[02:04.76] I think it's called my destiny
[02:06.66] That I am changing
[02:09.59] Marlene on the wall
[02:12.82]
[02:16.92] And even if I am in love with you
[02:18.88] All this to say, what's it to you
[02:20.99] Observe the blood, the rose tattoo
[02:23.17] Of the fingerprints on me from you
[02:25.43] Other evidence has shown
[02:27.73] That you and I are still alone
[02:29.54] We skirt around the danger zone
[02:31.57] And don't talk about it later
[02:33.85] And I tried so hard to resist
[02:35.89] When you held me in your handsome fist
[02:38.08] And reminded me of the night we kissed
[02:40.13] And of why I should be leaving
[02:42.67] Marlene watches from the wall
[02:45.00] Her mocking smile says it all
[02:47.07] She records the rise and fall
[02:49.38] Of every man who's been here
[02:51.41] But the only one here now is me
[02:53.47] I'm fighting things I cannot see
[02:55.70] I think it's called my destiny
[02:58.05] That I am changing
[02:59.94] Changing, changing, changing, changing
[03:04.35] Marlene watches from the wall
[03:06.57] Her mocking smile says it all
[03:08.67] She records the rise and fall
[03:10.94] Of every soldier passing
[03:12.97] But the only soldier now is me
[03:15.07] I'm fighting things I cannot see
[03:17.68] I think it's called my destiny
[03:19.83] That I am changing
[03:22.43] Marlene on the wall
[03:24.14]
