Nits - Dapper Street lyrics

rate me

(Hofstede)<br />

Give me the sombre city highroads<br />

The clouds are framed by attic windows<br />

Those are the words I long to hear<br />

But when I walk I keep my tears from falling<br />

And if you don't know where to go<br />

You're lost in a dead end street<br />

The houses fall down every day<br />

But maybe someday I'll keep this house from falling<br />

This is the street where I was living<br />

This is the square where I was fighting<br />

Nobody fears the ball and chain<br />

I feel the tears my memory lane is falling<br />

And still I don't know where to go<br />

I'm lost in a misty town<br />

No poetry in dead end street<br />

They tear all the houses down<br />

When you walk in Dapperstreet<br />

When you live in Dapperstreet<br />

Now it rains on broken windows<br />

The streets are always wet<br />

Through all the empty alleys wind blows<br />

You're never coming back<br />

When you live in Dapperstreet<br />

Give me the sombre city highroads<br />

The clouds are framed by attic windows<br />

Those are the words I long to hear<br />

But when I walk I keep my tears from falling<br />

And if you don't know where to go<br />

You're lost in a misty town<br />

No poetry in dead end street<br />

They tear all the houses down<br />

When you walk in Dapperstreet<br />

When you live in Dapperstreet<br />

Now it rains on broken windows<br />

The streets are always wet<br />

Through all the empty alleys wind blows<br />

You're never coming back<br />

When you live in Dapperstreet<br />

City crime one grey morning<br />

Blissfuly happy I'm walking<br />

City crime one grey morning<br />

Blissfuly happy I'm walking<br />

City crime one grey morning<br />

Blissfuly happy I'm walking<br />

Suddenly happy in Dapperstreet
