[00:00:01] Year Of The Cat (Single Version) (Live) - Al Stewart

[00:01:49] On a morning from a Bogart movie

[00:01:53] In a country where they turn back time

[00:01:57] You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre

[00:02:00] Contemplating a crime

[00:02:05] She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running

[00:02:09] Like a watercolour in the rain

[00:02:14] Don't bother asking for explanations

[00:02:17] She'll just tell you that she came

[00:02:20] In the year of the cat

[00:02:38] She doesn't give you time for questions

[00:02:42] As she locks up your arm in hers

[00:02:46] And you follow 'till your sense of which direction

[00:02:50] Completely disappears

[00:02:54] By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls

[00:02:58] There's a hidden door she leads you to

[00:03:02] These days she says I feel my life

[00:03:06] Just like a river running through

[00:03:09] The year of the cat

[00:03:28] Well she looks at you so cooly

[00:03:32] And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea

[00:03:35] She comes in incense and patchouli

[00:03:40] So you take her to find what's waiting inside

[00:03:46] The year of the cat

[00:04:38] Well morning comes and you're still with her

[00:04:42] And the bus and the tourists are gone

[00:04:46] And you've thrown away your choice and lost your ticket

[00:04:50] So you have to stay on

[00:04:54] But the drum beat strains of the night remain

[00:04:58] In the rhythm of the new born day

[00:05:03] You know sometime you're bound to leave her

[00:05:07] But for now you're going to stay

[00:05:09] In the year of the cat

[00:05:26] Oh year of the cat
