These Streets
Today I saw another place I can cross off my list
A place I still remember where we used to kiss
Now it can join the buses and the planes and the trains
In the garbage heap of memories
At the back of my brain
And yeah, we used to travel every weekend we could
I thought it was for us but how I misunderstood
You were only running from your past five years
Of a break up so severe you never got to the tears
And oh, is this really what you wanted?
Now your past is only haunting
What you're supposed to have with me
I got these streets
Doesn't matter where I'm going
I got these streets
Walk away from what I'm knowing
I got these streets
Walls that never see me crying
Strangers pass by
Where you were once there by my side
You would be the driver while the passenger seat
Was filled with just a man
You never wanted to meet
And my mother even told me that you weren't so discrete
And we had to face our demons
On our own terms, you see
I suppose I should be thankful or even be glad
That I helped you find a place
At least that wasn't so sad
But now I'm just a moment
Where you'll look back and smile
So I'll look to my speedo(meter) and count every mile
And oh, is this really what you wanted?
Now your past in only haunting
What you're supposed to have with me
I got these streets
Doesn't matter where I'm going
I got these streets
Walk away from what I'm knowing
I got these streets
Walls that never see me crying
Strangers pass by
Where you were once there by my side
-Strangers pass me by-
Everyone says
Let go what am I holding to
But I can't even tell them
Because I no longer know you
But I got these streets
Doesn't matter where I'm going
I got these streets
Walk away from what I'm knowing
I got these streets
Walls that never see me crying
Strangers pass by
Where you were once there by my side
Strangers pass me by
Once there by my side
Strangers pass me by
I miss you
Strangers pass me by
Strangers pass my way
Where you were once there by my side
