Streets of Philadelphia Lyrics
(Take 3)
[Verse 1]
I was bruised and battered
I can't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
Saw my reflection in a window
And no one face
Oh, brother gonna leave me wasted away in the streets of Philadelphia
[Verse 2]
I walked the avenues 'til my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends, vanished and gone
At night, I can heard the blood in my veins
It's as black and whispering as the rain on the streets of Philadelphia
[Verse 3]
Ain't no angel gonna meet me here
It's just you and I, my friend
If my clothes don't fit my anymore, I've walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin
The night has fallen, I'm lying awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother, with your faithless kiss
We'll believe each other and all of this on the streets of Philadelphia
[Verse 1]
I was bruised and battered
I can't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
Saw my reflection in a window
And no one face
Oh, brother gonna leave me wasted away in the streets of Philadelphia
[Verse 2]
I walked the avenues 'til my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends, vanished and gone
At night, I can heard the blood in my veins
It's as black and whispering as the rain on the streets of Philadelphia
[Verse 3]
Ain't no angel gonna meet me here
It's just you and I, my friend
If my clothes don't fit my anymore, I've walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin
The night has fallen, I'm lying awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother, with your faithless kiss
We'll believe each other and all of this on the streets of Philadelphia
