Martin Down - Dead End Street Lyrics

Late summer back I don't know when
And it's burning in the street
I'm by myself in the city
And I'm blinded by the heat
I duck into a street-side cafe
Quench my thirst with a drink
Then through my shades I saw her
Made me stop and think

Her life is an open road
Woh-oh-oh-oo-oh-oh
My life is a dead end street
With nowhere left to turn

That autumn as the nights drew in
And the leaves fell on the street
My mind wheels circles 'bout this
Girl I'm trying to meet
I hang around the bars I've seen her
Trace her steps once more
Then there she is my whole life story
On the dance floor

Oh winter back I don't know when
And there's snow out on the street
I watch through a frosted window
I'm in a bar for heat
She sways through the crowd towards me
I try to catch my breath
An icy hand upon my cheek
And a pounding in my chest
