The Wallflowers - 6th Avenue Heartache

Sirens ring, the shots ring out A stranger cries, screams out loud I had my world strapped against my back I held my hands, never knew how to act And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache Below me was a homeless man I'm singin' songs, I knew complete On the steps alone, his guitar in hand It's fifty years, he stood where he stands And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache Now walkin' home on those streets The river winds move my feet Subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams They stood by me, just like moonbeams And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache, heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache, heartache Look out the window, down upon that street And gone like a midnight was that man But I see his six strings laid against that wall And all his things, they all look so small I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star Just like me, just moved on And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache, heartache And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache, heartache And now it's drawn me in And the same black line that was drawn on you Was drawn on me And now it's drawn me in 6th Avenue heartache, heartache
