Footsteps On the Street

This is part of the first song I ever wrote. I say part because I am certain that there were more words than this. I am sure I have it some where's but for now this is what it is.


I wrote this song in 1994 with my friend Mike Villimaire, as far as I know it is his first song as well. Besides of course "Lonely Hearts" which was more of an improv song.


K found the rest of the song. It's a little dramatic but hey I was 16 what do you expect?


Enjoy

Footsteps On The Street


James/ Villemaire


In a tent on a street Running down trying to find it

Praying to god we wont be seen Going crazy all my problems

All my thoughts gone Looking for it couldn't find it

So I wanted to turn back but you wouldn't let me

Said we're going far, Said you could see the future

But all I could see was darkness and I could hear were

Footsteps on the street

Footsteps on the street

Stripped of all my problems

gone were all my fears

Footsteps on the street



Told you that I wanted it You said I didn't need it

Told you that I needed to leave You said no you don't

I said I wanted to run So you followed

Running into the night Running into our fears

Running over the moment trying to reach the moon

Ran along the tracks said you heard a train

All I could hear were

Footsteps on the street

each one pounding out a different memory

each one pounding out a different pain

Footsteps on the street
