Empty Streets

Empty streets under my feet, Sodium lamplight burns for me
A distant train running down the track, creates a beat with the click-clack
Met a girl tonight fell in love, She didn't want to know, The brush off
Walking home alone once more, Just wanna make it to my front door
The boys are racing down the high street, The bass bins boom and tyres screech
I see a fella I knew from school, He nods at me and we play it cool
Lives so different but much the same, I recall his face but not his name
Had a drink or two, maybe more, Just wanna make it to my front door
Blackbird singing from an office block, He sings for me when my spirits drop
The only one out here tonight, I get the feeling everything's alright
