Bruce Springsteen
Streets Of Philadelphia
I was bruised and battered I couldn't tell
What I felt,
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window I didn't know
My own face,
Oh brother are you gonna leave me
Wastin' away
On the streets of Philadelphia.
I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone,
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins,
Black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of Philadelphia.
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
It's just you and I my friend,
My clothes don't fit me no more,
I walked thousand miles
Just to slip skin.
The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake,
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss,
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of Philedelphia.
