[00:14.92]As the cafe was closing
[00:16.35]On a warm summer night
[00:20.43]And Cathy was cleaning the spoons
[00:26.42]The radio played the hit parade
[00:31.94]And I hummed a long with the tune
[00:35.91]She asked me to change the station
[00:40.40]Said the song just drove her insane
[00:44.91]But it weren't just the music playing
[00:48.42]It was me that she was trying to blame.
[00:55.03]And the sky is black and still now
[00:59.59]On the hill where the angels sing
[01:04.08]Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
[01:08.07]Looks just like a diamond ring
[01:14.05]But it's far, far from me
[01:21.10]Well, I leaned on my left leg
[01:25.13]In the parking lot dirt
[01:29.14]And Cathy was closing the lights
[01:35.66]A June bug flew from the warmth he once knew
[01:40.19]And I wished for once I weren't right
[01:43.68]Why we used to laugh together
[01:48.60]And we'd dance to any old song.
[01:54.19]Well, ya know, she still laughs with me
[01:57.76]But she waits just a second to long.
[02:03.24]And the sky is black and still now
[02:07.29]On the hill where the angels sing
[02:12.79]Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
[02:16.73]Looks just like a diamond ring
[02:22.80]But it's far, far from me
[02:29.86]Well, I started the engine
[02:33.29]And I gave it some gas
[02:35.87]And Cathy was closing her purse
[02:44.29]Well, we hadn't gone far in my beat old car
[02:49.24]And I was prepared for the worst.
[02:53.80]"Will you still see me tomorrow?"
[02:57.91]"No, I got too much to do."
[03:02.99]Well, a question ain't really a question
[03:07.41]If you know the answer too.
[03:11.92]And the sky is black and still now
[03:16.40]On the hill where the angels sing
[03:21.93]Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
[03:26.55]Looks just like a diamond ring
[03:31.50]But it's far, far from me
