Bruce Springsteen » Streets Of Philadelphia Lyrics

I was bruised and battered
I couldn`t tell
what I felt
I was unecognizable
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 he 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 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
