~
one soft infested Summer, me and Terry became friends
catching rides to the outskirts, tying faith between our teeth
and hiding on the backstreets
hiding on the backstreets
with a love so hard and filled with defeat
running for our lives at night on them backstreets
~
where desperate lovers park, we sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings
to go running on the backstreets
running on the backstreets
Terry we swore we'd live forever
taking it on them backstreets together
~
endless juke joints and Valentino drag
running into the darkness, some hurt bad some really dieing
at night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city crying
blame it on the lies that killed us, blame it on the truth that ran us down
you can blame it all on me Terry, it don't matter to me now
when the breakdown hit at midnight, there was nothing left to say
but i hated him, and i hated you when you went away
~
just another tramp of hearts, crying tears of faithlessness
remember all the movies, Terry, we'd go see
trying to learn how to walk like the heroes we thought we had to be
well after all this time to find we're just like all the rest
to hiding on the backstreets
hiding on the backstreets
well we swore forever friends
on the backstreets until the end
