Al Stewart - Bedsitter Images

The subway station's closed again
Sleeps beneath its veil of rain
my footprints broken trail behind
Steals the nightlights from my mind

The dark deserted streets then clear
Today has lived and died in here
So I leave the chapel gloom
To find the shelter of my tiny room

But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in

The panneled patens (patterns?) on the door
chase shivering shadows to the floor
Upon the pillow worn and thin
the memories of hopes begin
the carpet with its flowers and shredding
spires a foot before my bed
the crack that won't return again
advancing through my broken window pane

But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in

The friends I've left back home all write
with laughing words that warm my sight
saying "Tell us, how's the city life?"
I reply and say just fine (why?)
and so you see I can't go back
until I either win or crack
I'm standing in a one way street
The stage is set
The story incomplete

But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in


Mirror lyrics:

While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright

The story incomplete
The stage is set
I'm standing in a one way street
until I either win or crack
and so you see I can't go back
I reply and say just fine (why?)
saying "Tell us, how's the city life?"
with laughing words that warm my sight
The friends I've left back home all write

While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright

advancing through my broken window pane
the crack that won't return again
spires a foot before my bed
the carpet with its flowers and shredding
the memories of hopes begin
Upon the pillow worn and thin
chase shivering shadows to the floor
The panneled patens (patterns?) on the door

While these wild bedsitter images come back to hem me in
Then alone in my room I must stay to lose or win
It's all right till the last winding train fades from sight
But it's alright while the lights of the city shine so bright

To find the shelter of my tiny room
So I leave the chapel gloom
Today has lived and died in here
The dark deserted streets then clear

Steals the nightlights from my mind
my footprints broken trail behind
Sleeps beneath its veil of rain
The subway station's closed again
