These Streets Lyrics - Live And Acoustic - Paolo Nutini

Cross the border 

Into the big bad world 

Where it takes you 'bout an hour 

Just to cross the road 

Just to stumble across another poor old soul from 

The dreary old lanes to the high-street madness 

I fight with my brain to believe my eyes 

And it's harder than you think 

To believe this sadness 

That creeps up my spine 

And haunts me through the night 

And life is good and the girls are gorgeuos 

Suddenly the air smells much greener now 

And I'm wondering 'round 

With a half pack of cigarettes

Searching for the change that I've lost somehow 

These streets have too many names for me 

I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy 

I'll get used to this eventually 

I know, I know 

Where'd the days go? When all we did was play 

And the stress that we were under wasn't stress at all 

Just a run and a jump into a harmless fall from 

Walking by a high-rise to a landmark square 

You see millions of people with millions of cares 

And I struggle to the train to make my way home 

I look at the people as they sit there alone 

Life is good, and the sun is shining 

Everybody flirts to their ideal place 

And the children all smile as a boat shuffled by them 

Photos 

Trying to pretend that they've got som space 

These streets have too many names for me 

I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy 

I'll get used to this eventually 

I know, I know 

These streets have too many names for me 

I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy 

I'll get used to this eventually 

I know, I know 

Life is good, and the girls are gorgeous 

Suddenly the air smells much greener now 

And I'm wondering 'round 

With a half pack of cigarettes 

Searching for the change that I've lost somehow 

These streets have too many names for me 

I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy 

I'll get used to this eventually 

I know, I know 

These streets have too many names for me 

I'm used to Glenfield road and spending my time down in Orchy 

I'll get used to this eventually 

I know, I know 

You keep telling me so
