lyrics

Short memories, eyes faster than your heart beats
there are bars in the doorway
spikes on the roof
paper and rags in a nest of black bags
there's a black cat lost and there's a poster in the park
but there's no-one looking for me
when it gets dark

I was young when I left home
now I'm out here on my own
could be me, could be you
flying down the avenue

Crumbs piling up like snowdrifts
in the caverns of your eyes
there's a black cat lost
and there's a poster in the park
but there's no-one looking, looking for me
when it gets dark

cover up the street
with a white cotton sheet
If I could get to sleep
I would dream of wings
I was young when I left home
now I'm out here on my own
could be me, could be you
flying down the avenue
