How Long? Lyrics

Sally, things close early
It's a holiday
They tell me

How long
Have you lived here?
Have you seen
The river?

Do you know the proper way
To ask for a cigarette?

I'm asking before winter comes

Stay here with me 'til morning
With the three-man orchestra playing
I ask a fortune teller
What they whisper when
I walk by

Do you know the proper way
To ask for a cigarette?
I'm asking before winter comes

She said, "All the people run from the horizon"
