philadelphia...
philadelphia...

sometimes i think that i know
what love's all about
and when i see the light
i know i'll be all right
philadelphia

i've got my friends in the world
i had my friends
when we were boys and girls
and the secrets came unfurled
mmmmm...

city of brotherly love
place i call home
don't turn your back on me
i don't want to be alone

someone is talking to me
calling my name
tell me i'm not to blame
i won't be ashamed of love
philadelphia

aaaaahh

city of brotherly love
brotherly love
aaadadadadaaadada
don't be ashamed of love
philadelphia

sometimes i think that i know
what love's all about
and when i see the light
i know i'll be all right
philadelphia

"Neil Young wrote this song during the time of what was supposed to be a reunion with his 1970s band, Crazy Horse. When Neil wrote this song, the original version of the melody was more of a peaceful ode to the city. Jonathan Demme thought that this melody was "too pretty," as the ending of the film was dark and sad. So Demme asked Young to fix the melody up a bit, changing a note here and a chord there. Jonathan had to describe to Neil how the film ended, then asked him to base the changes to his melody on the film's ending. Neil was asked to portray himself as if he were Andrew, playing the melody and singing the lyrics with the dark tone of a lost boy in his voice."
