I was bruised and battered and 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
|
Wastin' away
|
On the streets of Philadelphia
|
|
I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
|
I heard the 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
|
