lyrics

I’ve been staying up til the wee hours of the morning
Fretting over all that’s in my mind
I’ve been calling you, but I can’t find words to speak
Been happy just to hear you’re doing fine

It’s been a long time coming and I have myself to blame
I haven’t found much hope in this here town
There’s so many wandering workers and nobody knows my name
I think it’s time that I start to move around

Ooh I hope that you can hear me even if I will never know
Ooh I hold you so dearly, I think it’s time I learn to let you go

It’s high times I’ve been after, it’s a low life I have found
And these boots I wear have almost lost their tread
I miss your sunny laughter, always was my favourite sound
I swear that it could raise me up once I am dead

I walk alone at midnight with my hands tucked in my coat
I pick up pennies off the railroad track
I try to count my blessings, doesn’t take me long at all
The street is all I have that loves me back
