OLD STREETS (Baltimore 1986)
You were my funny honey
Now baby can you make me laugh again
Cause I've been so lonely, running from the rain
I'm looking at you and you're looking at me
Let's get together for those sweet good times, darlin'
back on those old streets.
It's been so long since we stood here together
So give me that smile and say you remember
Close your eyes, can't you feel it? So sweet and slow
If you're wanting what I'm wanting, there's only one place we can go...
Down to those old streets, they were our home
We were the golden children, now see how we've grown
Baby we could try again, if you put your hand in mine
We could go back to those old streets
and leave the world behind.
Come on, old friend
Let's such each other free
I know you've got your battlescars and you're a prisoner just like me;
You lost faith in heroes and I lost faith in some dreams
But maybe we can find a way to make it right again
Back on those old streets.
Now baby can you make me laugh again
Cause I've been so lonely, running from the rain
I'm looking at you and you're looking at me
Let's get together for those sweet good times, darlin'
back on those old streets.
It's been so long since we stood here together
So give me that smile and say you remember
Close your eyes, can't you feel it? So sweet and slow
If you're wanting what I'm wanting, there's only one place we can go...
Down to those old streets, they were our home
We were the golden children, now see how we've grown
Baby we could try again, if you put your hand in mine
We could go back to those old streets
and leave the world behind.
Come on, old friend
Let's such each other free
I know you've got your battlescars and you're a prisoner just like me;
You lost faith in heroes and I lost faith in some dreams
But maybe we can find a way to make it right again
Back on those old streets.
