Lyrics
Downtown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'd love to take you by the hand
And drag you out of here
I'd love to take you by the hand
And we'd both like to think
That we'll both be okay
But that doesn't matter anyway
Cuz everything we were and are
Is broken down and spilled out
On the floor
And though you're far away
You're not so far that I don't remember
Downtown in the park
You're either fishers or you're sharks
Blue sky, green grass
And a new tattoo
Downtown in the park
You're either fishes or you're sharks
All I ever wanted
Was to be with you
I'd love to take you far away
Somewhere we can see clearly
Away from all these people
And all of their strange problems
And I lovee to be with you
Night and day, you know that I would
But the walls we built are strong enough
To keep us both apart for years and years
And Aren't you the same one
That taught me to pray?
And then later walked away
Did you believe it?
When you told me?
That the love that we have has
To rise above these things?
