Streets Of Philadelphia – Nick Lachey (originally by Bruce Springsteen)
By
I was bruised and battered, I couldn’t tell what I felt I was unrecognizable to myself I saw my reflection in a window, I 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 the 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 My clothes don’t fit me no more I 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 Or will we leave each other alone like this On the Streets of Philadelphia
