Album:

Street Talk

Looking down I watch the night
 Running from the sun
 Orphan stars and city lights
 Fading one by one
 Oh, sweet memories
 I call on you now


 Two too many hearts been broken
 Along this lonely road
 Steel grey eyes can shine the lies
 Until they look like gold
 Cold city sidewalks can turn your heart to stone
 The street won't defeat me
 Cause I've got the will, I'll survive
 I don't mind runnin' alone


 I believe that every soul
 Has a song to sing
 The spirit's locked in every man
 Waiting for a wing
 Oh, so much is wasted
 And oh, so little used
 The trick of the dreamer
 Is keeping yourself from the blues
 And I don't mind runnin'


 Everyone's a hero
 If you want to be
 Everyone's a prisoner
 Holding their own key
 And every step I take
 And every move I make
 Always one step closer
 I don't mind runnin' alone


 Laughing children echo down
 The concrete alleyways
 Oh, their voices
 Calling, calling, calling yesterday
 Oh, sweet memories
 Returning to me now
 When young eyes saw clearly


 Everyone's a hero
 If you want to be
 Everyone's a prisoner
 Holding their own key
 And every step I take
 And every move I make
 Always one step closer
 I don't mind runnin' alone
