I would love to be the lucky one on Chill Avenue |
| [00:15.88] |
Who could keep your heart warm when ice has turned it blue |
| [00:18.90] |
But beggin' sleeping losers as they turn in for the night |
| [00:21.92] |
I'm lookin' back for home and I can see the lights |
| [00:25.11] |
I should be jumpin' shoutin' that I made it all this way |
| [00:28.06] |
From Camden Town station on to 44th and 8th |
| [00:31.12] |
Not many make it this far, many say we're great |
| [00:34.39] |
But just like them we walk on, we can't escape our fate |
| [00:37.68] |
Can't you hear the sighin' |
| [00:43.78] |
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue |
| [00:46.72] |
Both say they needed somethin' new |
| [00:49.66] |
So I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [00:52.84] |
I burn money at the lights of the sign |
| [00:55.59] |
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime |
| [01:02.38] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the East |
| [01:05.33] |
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend |
| [01:08.02] |
The city casts a shadow, will I see you again? |
| [01:15.23] |
The immigrants and remnants of all the glory years |
| [01:18.52] |
Are clustered 'round the bar again for another round of beers |
| [01:21.45] |
Little Richard's in the kitchen playin' spoons and plates |
| [01:24.62] |
He's tellin' the waitress he's great |
| [01:27.44] |
Ah say I know somewhere back 'n' forth in time |
| [01:30.97] |
Out on the dust bowls, deep in the roulette mine |
| [01:33.92] |
Or in a ghetto cellar only yesterday |
| [01:37.01] |
There's a move into the future for the USA |
| [01:42.49] |
I hear them cryin' |
| [01:46.91] |
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue |
| [01:49.54] |
Both said they needed something new |
| [01:52.61] |
So I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [01:55.91] |
I burn money at the lights of the sign |
| [01:58.62] |
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime |
| [02:05.89] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the East |
| [02:08.65] |
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend |
| [02:11.50] |
The city casts a shadow, will I see you again? |
| [02:31.26] |
Standing at the Gates of the West |
| [02:36.91] |
In the shadow again |
| [02:43.75] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [02:49.76] |
In the shadow again |
| [02:56.43] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [03:02.40] |
In the shadow again |
| [03:11.85] |
In the shadow again |
