Streets Of Philadelphia Songtext
I was bruised and battered I couldn't tell what I felt I was unrecognizable to myself I saw my reflection in a window And didn`t know my own face Oh brother you gonna leave me wastin' 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 feel 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 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 Philadelphia
