Downtown Songtext
von Alex Lloyd

The same old loose-lipped canon speaks for you today
Alone with that short talon, there′s not much to say
But all these arguments are meaningless today
And the reasons, well, they vanished in the haze
It's calling downtown
It′s calling downtown
No reasons to lie or tell me how to think it came to be
It's calling downtown
It's calling downtown
How′d they come to love you when you didn′t want to set them free?
We don't forgive to know you, will you ever see?
No reasons do we owe you, how′d it come to be?
The leaves have lost their shadows deep amongst the grey
"I hope that you'll be friendly," I heard someone say
It′s calling downtown
It's calling downtown
No reasons to lie or tell me how to think it came to be
It′s calling downtown
It's calling downtown
How'd they come to love you when you didn′t want to set them free?


It′s a stranger
It's calling downtown
It′s a stranger
It's calling downtown
It′s a stranger
A feather away
It's a stranger
It′s calling downtown
It's a stranger
It's calling downtown
It′s a stranger
A feather away
It′s a stranger
It's calling downtown
It′s a stranger
It's calling downtown
It′s a stranger
A feather away
It's easy to start from the back of the line
Where there′s no one to tell you that you're still behind
It's a stranger, a feather away
And you never miss your friends until you can′t relate
To the people beside you who′d kill to be dead
It's a stranger, a feather away again
A feather away again
A feather away again
