Streets of Philadelphia

Bruce Springsteen

[Verse 1]
I was bruised and battered, couldn't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
Saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face
Oh, don't leave me wastin' away
On the streets of Philadelphia

[Verse 2]
I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
Just as black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of Philadelphia

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
The night has fallen and I'm lyin' awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me, brother, with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of Philadelphia?

[Saxophone Solo]

[Bridge]
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
It's just you and I, my friend
And my clothes don't fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin

[Saxophone Solo]

[Outro]
