Sixth Avenue Heartache Lyrics - The Wallflowers

Sirens ring, shots ring out 

A stranger cries, and screams out loud 

I had my world strapped against my back 

I held my hands, never knew how to act 

And that same black line that was drawn on you 

It was drawn on me 

And now it's drawin' me in... sixth avenue heartache 

Below me was a homeless man 

I'm singin songs I knew complete 

On the steps alone, his guitar in hand 

It's fifty years, stood where he stands 

Now walkin home on those streets 

The river wind moves my feet 

Subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams 

They stood by me just like moonbeams 

Look out the window down upon that street 

And gone like a midnight was that man 

But I see his six string laid against that wall 

And all those things, they looked so small 

I've got my fingers crossed on a shooting star 

Just like me, just moved on
