David Does 6th Avenue Heartache by The Wallflowers


David Hubbard Does
6th Avenue Heartache by The Wallflowers

Sirens ring, 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
Singin' songs I knew complete
On the steps alone, his guitar in hand
It's fifty years, 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

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

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawn me in
6th Avenue heartache


Look out the window, down upon that street
And gone like a midnight was that man
But I see his six string's laid against that wall
And all his things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star
That just like me, he 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


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


And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawn me in
6th Avenue heartache
