Boogie Street Featuring Gregory Hoskins Songtext
von Art of Time Ensemble

Oh Crown of Light, Oh Darkened One
I never thought we′d meet
You kiss my lips, and then you're go
And I′m back, back on Boogie Street

A sip of wine, a cigarette
And then it's time to go
I tidied up the kitchenette
I tuned the old banjo

I'm wanted at the traffic jam
They′re saving me a seat
I′m what I am, and what I am
Is back on Boogie Street

And oh, my love, I still recall
The pleasures that we knew
The rivers and the waterfall
Wherein I bathed with you


Bewildered by your beauty there
I knelt to dry your feet
By such instructions you prepare
A man for Boogie Street

Oh Crown of Light, Oh Darkened One (Darkened One)
I never thought we'd meet
You kissed my lips, and you′re gone
And I'm back, back on Boogie Street

So come my friends, be not afraid
We are so lightly here
It is in love that we are made
And in love we disappear

Though all the maps of blood and flesh
Are posted on the door
There′s no one who has told us yet
What Boogie Street, what Boogie Street is for

Oh Crown of Light, Oh Darkened One (Darkened One)
I never thought we'd meet
You kissed my lips, and then you′re gone
And I'm back, back on Boogie Street


A sip of wine, a cigarette
And then it's time to go
I tidied up the kitchenette
I tuned the old banjo

I′m wanted at the traffic jam
They′re saving me a seat
I'm what I am, and what I am
Is back on Boogie Street
