Streets Of Philadelphia Lyrics

Gregorian Streets Of Philadelphia

I was bruised and battered, I couldn't tell what I felt I was unrecognizable to myself Saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face Oh, brother, are you gonna leave me wasting away On the streets of Philadelphia

I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone I heard 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't no angel gonna greet me It's just you and I, my friend And my clothes don't fit me no more I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin

The night has fallen and 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
