Streets of Philadelphia

Lyrics

I was bruised and battered, couldn't tell what I felt I was unrecognizable to myself I saw my reflection in a window, didn't know my own face Oh, brother, are you gonna leave me wasting away On the streets of Philadelphia, oh-oh On the streets of Philadelphia I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone I heard voices of friends vanished and gone At night I could hear the blood rushing through my vein Just as black and whispering as the rain On the streets of Philadelphia, oh-oh On the streets of Philadelphia Ain't no angel gonna greet me It's just you and I, my friend And my clothes, they don't fit me no more I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin The night has fallen and 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
