– Streets whisper your name

Nov

It’s amazing how some songs have a long history and how events in your life will change their meaning over time…

I was listening to Matt Wertz‘s new album If It Ain’t Broke and heard the beautiful song Even The Streets for the first time in a while. It made me realize how much in my life has changed since I first heard it.

Listen to:
Even The Streets

Even The Streets

I tried leaving you at home
But every thought returns to you
My head it seems to roam
No matter what I do

You know it’s late right now
And every song sings of us
I guess these singers know somehow
And my life they must discuss

But I left the pictures of you behind
Because I didn’t want to dwell on you
But even the streets speak your name out here
And last night’s movie too

The mountains now in the rearview
As the tired road creeps on and on and on
Perhaps I’ll leave you in Colorado
With this Monday morning fog

But the pictures await me back home
And there the streets whisper, whisper your name
Escape it seems impossible sometimes
And I’m the one to blame

But I left the pictures of you behind
Because I didn’t want to dwell on you
But even the streets speak your name out here
And last night’s movie too

I tried leaving you behind
But you wouldn’t stay
Thank God you didn’t
