How Long? Lyrics

Sally, things close early
It's a holiday
They tell me

How long
Have you lived here?
Have you seen
The river?

Do you know the proper way
To ask for a cigarette?

I'm asking before winter comes

Stay here with me 'til morning
With the three-man orchestra playing
I ask a fortune teller
What they whisper when
I walk by

Do you know the proper way
To ask for a cigarette?
I'm asking before winter comes

All the people run from the horizon
All the people run from the horizon
All the people run from the horizon
All the people run from the horizon
All the people run from the horizon
Staying late, waking late, on the horizon
All the people run from the horizon
