STREETS OF PHILADELPHIA

STREETS OF PHILADELPHIA Lyrics

I was bruised and battered

i couldnt tell what i felt,

i was unrecognizable to myself,

saw my reflection in a window,

didnt know my own face,

oh brother! are u gonna leave me wasting away,

on the streets of Philadelphia,

I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone,

I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone, at night

i could hear the blood in my veins,

Just as black and whispering as the rain,

on the streets of Philadelphia,

Ain’ no angel gonna greet me,

its just you and i my friend,

and my clothes dont fit me no more,

I walked a thousand miles,

just to slip this skin,

Night has fallen i’m lying 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 Philadelphia.
