Streetlights

Down the road in this small town Yeah I’d meet you by the corner store When evening came around
We would go just to be free
On every sidewalk you were next to me Through the desert heat
Now I, feel the cold when I step outside It’s like, everything I used to be
Is just a piece of you and me
And it’s all been left behind...
Under streetlights
In the summertime you’d walk with me Up all night, to pass the time
Under streetlights
I found heaven in your company
I was alright when you’re in my life Yeah I’m alright, with you
Then Saturday in August came
I went to say goodbye, one more time Before you moved away
But I knew I was too late, yeah Standing at your empty house With what I practiced I would say
But it’s all been left behind...

Under streetlights
In the summertime you’d walk with me Up all night, to pass the time
Under streetlights
I found heaven in your company
I was alright when you’re in my life Yeah I’m alright, with you
When it comes down to it
I just wanted you to stay
You were everything to me, yeah
If I think about it
Would it still be same?
Are we better off far away?
