Avenues

Holding steady, done my best
Hand me the keys and I'll pack up the rest
While you build up to leave
Hold fire, don't forget me
I shout to your back

Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be

Songs and letters that we've shared
Doesn't mean shit if it don't make you cry
Absolution, hallelujah! Hold my drink darling
I'm just getting started
Oh but please don't go

Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be
Avenues, now I lose the one thing that I had
Please don't leave

Heaven knows where I go now

Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be
Avenues, now I lose the one thing that I had
Please don't leave

Just say the one thing that I could still do for you
I run down all the streets and the avenues
Where the leaves seem to spell out your name
Scattered then gathered then scattered again
