Empty Streets
[Verse 1]
I know a woman
She's as cold as a stone
And she hides in the shadows
Of an empty road
I tried to break her
But she couldn't be broke
And we walked together
On this empty road, but
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I need a lover
Not just another
Not just somebody to spend the night
You want my reasons
I couldn't tell you
And if I did, it wouldn't ease your mind
[Chorus]
I need a heartbeat
To keep me on my feet
[Verse 2]
Pretty girls born in the 90's
They don't know much of '85
They're alive
I'm barely breathing
Wanna remember what that feels like
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I need a lover
Not just another
Not just somebody to spend the night
Don't need an answer
Don't need a reason
Things come apart, baby that's all right
[Chorus]
I need a heartbeat
To keep me on my feet
Walking on empty streets
[Bridge]
I give up
Walking on empty streets
'Cause they're filled with faces of people I never meet
I run through the valleys
Between buildings and concrete
All I hear are the echoes
Where there once was a heartbeat beat- beat- beating
[Chorus]
I need a heartbeat
To keep me on my feet
Walking on empty streets
I need a heartbeat
To keep me on my feet
Walking on empty streets
