Red Light Avenue Lyrics - James Reyne

Looking out upon this endless day 

Just got better now I must get well 

Sometimes I think I'll never see 

A whole wide world in front of me 

There's always one more soul to sell 

Another night lays it's hands on me 

Don't remember how it used to be 

It's not forever but it feels just like the end 

And another day is turning blue 

Down on Red Light Avenue 

It's 6 o'clock & I can't even sleep 

There's a fire burning in my head 

You better call somebody quick 

A little dose will do the trick 

I'm waiting but this line is dead 

Another child giving up her sweets 

The corridors and the dirty streets 

It's not forever but it feels just like the end 

And another day is turning blue 

Down on Red Light Avenue 

Not alot of time to have to wonder 

Not alot of time to have to cry 

And now when you feel your going under 

Not alot of time to wonder why 

Out where the angels come to lose their wings 

My heart is breaking like a stone 

I wanna call off all the bets 

It's not as good as it ever gets 

It's alaways such a long way home 

Hold me one more time again 

Sorrow is the cruelest friend 

It's not forever but it feels just like the end 

And another day is turning blue 

Down on Red Light Avenue
