Verse 1
On a morning from a Bogart movie
In a country where they turned back time
You go strolling through the crowd like
Peter Lorre contemplating a crime
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress
Running like a water color in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came
D D6 D5/A (Cmaj7)
In the year of the cat

Verse 2
She doesn't give you time for questions
As she locks up you arm in hers
And you follow 'til your sense of
Which direction completely disappears
By the blue-tiled walls near the market stalls
There's a hidden door she leads you to
"These days," she says, "I feel my life just
Like a river running through
D D6 D5/A (Cmaj7)
The year of the cat
Interlude

Bridge
Well she looks at you so cooly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and pathchouli
So you take her to find what's
Waiting inside

Verse 3
Well morning comes and you're still with her
And the bus and the tourists are gone
And you've thrown away your choice and
Lost your ticket so you have to stay on
But the drumbeat strains of the night
Remain in the rhythm of the newborn day
You know sometime you're bound to leave her
But for now you're gonna stay
D D6 D5/A (Cmaj7)
