Pete Wilkinson - These Streets lyrics

[Intro: Paolo Nutini] This next song is uhm is about when I moved from Paisley to London It's just a bit of change a big difference between them both, it's called these streets you know [Verse 1] Cross the border, into the big bad world Where it takes you 'bout an hour just to cross the road Just to stumble across another poor old soul From the dreary old lanes to the high-street madness I fight with my brain to believe my eyes And it's harder than you think to believe this sadness That creeps up my spine and haunts me through the night [Bridge] Life is good and the girls are gorgeous Suddenly the air smells much greener now And I'm wondering around with a half pack of cigarettes Searching for the change that I've lost somehow [Chorus] These streets have too many names for me I'm used to Glen Field road And spending my time down in Orchy I'll get used to this eventually I know, I know [Verse 2] Where'd the days go? When all we did was play And the stress that we were under wasn't stress at all Just a run and a jump into a harmless fall From walking by a high-rise to a landmark square You see millions of people with millions of cares And I struggle to the train to make my way home I look at the people as they sit there alone Life is good and the sun is shining Everybody flirts to their ideal place And the children all smile as a boat shuffled by them Trying to pretend that they've got some space [Chorus x2] [Bridge] [Chorus x2] [Outro] Cause you keep telling me so
