Bruce Springteen Streets Of Philadelphia Lyrics

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
and 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 on my veins
Just as 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
You know, my clothes don´t fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin

The night has fallen and 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
