Philadelphia movie - Streets Of Philadelphia lyrics

rate me

Song by Bruce Springsteen<br /><br>

I was bruised and battered<br>

And I couldn't tell what I felt<br>

I was unrecognizable to myself<br>

Saw my reflection in a window<br>

I didn't know my own face<br>

<br>

Oh brother are you gonna leave me wasting away<br>

On the streets of Philadelphia<br>

<br>

I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone<br>

I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone<br>

At night I could hear the blood in my veins<br>

Just as black and whispering as the rain<br>

On the streets of Philadelphia<br>

<br>

Ain't no angel gonna greet me<br>

It's just you and I my friend<br>

And my clothes don't fit me no more<br>

I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin<br>

<br>

The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake<br>

I can feel myself fading away<br>

So receive me brother with your faithless kiss<br>

Or will we leave each other alone like this<br>

On the streets of Philadelphia<br>

<br>
