Other Streets And Other Towns Lyrics

Other Streets And Other Towns lyrics

The whippoorwills were crying in the falling rain
Far away a whistle hailed a
passing train
Out in the country summer was almost gone
The fields were
turning rusty and the hills were turning brown

Now I think of you when
summer stars are on the rise
I think of you with a bottle of wine and lazy
eyes
Playing rock and roll songs on an old guitar
Getting drunk and
sleeping out in my backyard

Now sometimes I just lie awake and I hear
the wind
Blowing through the seasons of my heart again
My dreams are
mostly lost and found on other streets,
in other towns
But babe, you
know, I still look out for you

The cars were all abandoned on the city
streets
When snow had left us stranded then we used our feet
And wound up
drinking whiskey in a crowded bar
And now when it starts storming I wonder
where you are

'Cause you said that I was crazy to believe in you
You
said to never trust a man who sings the blues
Well trust and that old guitar
was all you'd ever need
If you found a way to love the girl in
me

Chorus:

Other boys I knew were just like shiny dimes
Tossed
and spent, they came and went a hundred times
Nothing was as rough on me as
giving up on you
Now it seems like every bar in town's got boys who sing the
blues

Chorus:
