Backstreets lyrics

Artist  : Bruce springsteen 
Song : Backstreets
 
One soft infested summerMe and Terry became
friendsTrying in vain to breathe
The fire we was born inCatching rides to the
outskirts
Tying faith between out teethSleeping in that old
abandoned beach house
Getting wasted in the heatAnd hiding on the
backstreetsHiding on the backstreets
With a love so hard and filled with defeat
Running for our lives at night on them
backstreetsSlow dancing in the dark
On the beach at Stockton's WingWhere desperate
lovers park
We sat with the last of the Duke Street
KingsHuddled in our cars
Waiting for the bells that ringIn the deep heart
of the night
To set us loose from everythingTo go running on
the backstreets
Running on the backstreetsWe swore we'd live
forever
On the backstreets we take it togetherEndless
juke joints in Valentino drag
Where dancers scraped the tearsUp off the street
dressed down in rags
Running into the darknessSome hurt bad some
really dying
At night sometimes it seemedYou could hear the
whole damn city crying
Blame it on the lies that killed usBlame it on
the truth that ran us down
You can blame it all on me TerryIt don't matter
to me now
When the breakdown hit at midnightThere was
nothing left to sayBut I hated him
And I hated you when you went awayLaying here in
the dark
You're like an angel on my chestJust another
tramp of hearts
Crying tears of faithlessnessRemember all the
movies TerryWe'd go see
Trying to learn how to walk like the heroesWe
thought we had to be
And after all this timeTo find we're just like
all the restStranded in the park
And forced to confessTo hiding on the
backstreetsHiding on the backstreets
We swore forever friendsOn the backstreets until
the end
Hiding on the backstreetsHiding on the
backstreets
