Visions of Johanna

The Complete Album Collection Vol.1专辑

  • Ain't it just like the night to play Tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet
    We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
    And Louise holds hand ful of rain
    Temptin' you to defy it

    Lights flicker from the opposite loft
    In this room the heat pipes just cough
    The country music station plays soft
    But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off

    Just Louise
    And her lover so entwined
    And these visions of Johanna
    That conquer my mind

    In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
    And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D train
    We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
    Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane

    Louise, she's all right, she's just near
    She's delicate and seems like the mirror
    But she makes it all to concise and clear
    That Johanna's not here

    The ghost of 'lectricity
    Howls in the bones of her face
    Where these visions of Johanna
    Have now taken my place

    Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
    He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
    And when bringing her name up
    He speaks of a farewell kiss to me

    He's sure got a lotta gall
    To be so useless and all
    Muttering small talk at the wall
    While i'm in the hall

    Oh, how can i explain
    It's so hard to get on
    And these visions of Johanna
    They kept me up past the dawn

    Inside the museums, infinity goes up on trial
    Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
    But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
    You can tell by the way she smiles

    See the primitive wallflower freeze
    When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
    Hear the one with the mustache say, jeeze, I can't find my knees.'

    Both jewels and binoculars
    Hang from the head of the mule
    But these visions of Johanna
    they make it all seem so cruel

    The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
    Sayin', ‘name me someone that's not a parasite，and I'll go out and say a prayer for him’
    But like Louise always says
    You can't look at much, can you man’as she, herself, prepares for him“

    My Madonna
    She still has not showed
    We see this empty cage now corrode
    Where her cape of the stage once had flowed

    The fiddler
    He now steps to the road
    He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
    On the back of the fish truck that loads

    While my conscience explodes
    The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
    And these visions of Johanna
    Are now all that remain
