Watch the feathers fly up from your coat You're like an angel; I need an angel I get so weighted down somehow you float Across the pavement Across the pavement I've been stuck to so long
And an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you
Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight
Tonight I say it's like the city's ours You say it's nowhere I'm fine with nowhere Smile as you exhale up toward the stars And blow the dust out, and blow the dust across a seas of concrete
Where an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you
Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight
And there's no place I'd rather be than on this sidewalk You and me, we could have it all Soaking in a summer night while you're biting at rain drops
Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight
In an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you
