Lyrics for Avenues

No the cops here they can't run down to your house Sometimes, I sit and wish i were somewhere else So lets damn the daylights for us sweethearts that we are Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms All the sweethearts of the world Are out dancing in the places where me and all my friends Go to hide our faces Avenues run one way Streets they run the same Something in the air here still keeps me away No the cops here they can't take me to your house I get directions and pretend I was somewhere else All the sweethearts of the world are out littering the bars And I am still avenues from any place you are You know avenues run one way Streets they run the same Its gonna take a lot of shit for me To stay away
