Avenues

Know the cops here

They can't run down to your house

Sometimes I'll sit and wish

I were somewhere elseSo let's dim the daylights for us

Sweethearts that we are

Sometimes I find myself

Still lying in your armsAll the sweethearts of the world

Are out dancing in the places

Where me and all my friends

Go to hide our facesAvenues run one way

Streets they run the same

Something in the air here

Still keeps me awayThough the cops here

They can't take me to your house

I get directions and pretend

I was somewhere elseAll the sweethearts of the world

Are out littering the bars

And I am still avenues from

Any place you areYou know avenues run one way

The streets they run the same

It's going to take a lot of shit for me

To stay away
