Jack Blanchard & Misty Morgan - Clock Of St. James lyrics

Your rating:

The clock of St James lookin' down through the rain at the city blackened with time

Alleys and the doorways are grim, the street lights dimmed from the soot and the grime

The pitiful scream from the Second Street bridge

Was drowned by the three o'clock chime

But the Clock of St James lookin' down through the rain knows I committed a crime



CHORUS

Clock of St James, Clock of St James like an eye in the sky lookin' deep in my brain

Seein' my weakness, seein' my shame, where can I hide from Clock of St James



The Clock of St James lookin' down through the rain lookin' at a grim pantomime

The body that falls from the Second Street bridge, the splash in the watery slime

The lights of the bridge never touchin' the hand clutchin' a dollar and dime

But the Clock of St James looking down through the rain knows I committed a crime



CHORUS



I run through the city, I run through the shadows of the buildings all blackened with time

The alleys and the doorways are grim, my hand still clutchin' the dollar and dime

The pitiful scream from the Second Street bridge was drowned by the three o'clock chime

But the clock of St James looking down through the rain knows I committed a crime



CHORUS
