Stina Nordenstam - Down desire avenue lyrics

rate me

Down Desire Avenue

where all the pilots go

Line in a bar when day is thru

keeping the world in a place below

Tall second rated moviestars

step from their overcoloured truth

out thru a side door right into

Desire Avenue

Empty faces, silly walks

Coming in from the tight-rope dance

Men judging balance above all

looking down on their shaking hands

It's coming up it's hard to breathe

and I think of you

I'm going down but nothing's cheap

down Desire Avenue

One bite of cold and one of heat

A sip of lust a sip of pain

A careless way to cross the street

that is the way to play this game

Now - is a red-hot piece of coal

thrown right at you

This isn't courage anymore

down Desire Avenue
