Karaoke Track: Year Of The Cat by Al Stewart (Sunfly) - Karaoke Nerds

1 minute
03 seconds

On a morning

from a Bogart movie

In a country where

they turn 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
watercolour in the rain

Don't bother asking
for explanations

she'll just tell you
that she came

In the year of the cat

Instrumental
14 seconds

She doesn't give you
time for questions

as she locks up
your arm in hers

And you follow till
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

The year of the cat

Instrumental
14 seconds

Well she looks at you

so cooly

And her eyes shine
like the moon in the sea
she comes in incense
and patchouli

So you take her

to find what's
waiting inside

The year of the cat

Instrumental

1 minute
20 seconds

And you've thrown away
your choice

and lost your ticket
so you have to stay on

But the drum-heat strains
of the night remain
in the rhythm of the
new-horn day

You know sometime
you're bound

to leave her

but for now
you're gonna stay

In the year of the cat

Instrumental

13 seconds

Mmm year of the cat
