Lyrics

SHE LIVES UP THE STREET

Cut across the country
Your hand takes the lead
Shooting stars hide behind the daylight
And when night falls they fall
They fall
So do I
She lives up the street

Tall, thin and old, but with beautiful manners
I'm a man of desire not reason
A sleeping demonstration of sensation
Self control
She lives up the street

All these years
Switching
When the holidays come and pass
And they're gone three generations
The moments of my past will shrink away

On a couch across the room
In the house where we were born
For the first time she looked old to me
So do I
She lives up the street

Width of the will
Width of the will

Repeat Chorus
