story behind the song: wandering the streets, wandering the days
Lyrics
sun rose slowly, like it always does
over those fields of grey
dawn shone golden, in way i suppose
the colour of fried today
and the new year's coming
to remind me, in a few days or so
of all the regrets and their cousins
in those tears of once was
and on this street, there's not anyone
no one else passed this way
cat jumped up, like someone once did
crawled into my arms again
he doesn't know any better, in a way i suppose
we might even be friends
still another year's coming
to define me, in the light of who knows
all the trials and tribulations
in the fear that once is
and in time even i will be gone
down another rue de today
another rue de today
