James Reyne Red Light Avenue Lyrics

Red Light Avenue Lyrics

Looking out upon this endless day

Just got better now I must get well

Sometimes I think I'll never see

A whole wide world in front of me

There's always one more soul to sell



Another night lays it's hands on me

Don't remember how it used to be

It's not forever but it feels just like the end



And another day is turning blue

Down on Red Light Avenue



It's 6 o'clock & I can't even sleep

There's a fire burning in my head

You better call somebody quick

A little dose will do the trick

I'm waiting but this line is dead



Another child giving up her sweets

The corridors and the dirty streets

It's not forever but it feels just like the end



And another day is turning blue

Down on Red Light Avenue



Not alot of time to have to wonder

Not alot of time to have to cry

And now when you feel your going under

Not alot of time to wonder why



Out where the angels come to lose their wings

My heart is breaking like a stone

I wanna call off all the bets

It's not as good as it ever gets

It's alaways such a long way home



Hold me one more time again

Sorrow is the cruelest friend

It's not forever but it feels just like the end



And another day is turning blue

Down on Red Light Avenue
