Even The Streets
Whispers of Love in Every Street: Matt Wertz's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
I tried leaving you at home
I attempted to distance myself from you at home
But every thought returns to you
Despite my efforts, my thoughts keep returning to you
My head it seems to roam
My mind seems unsettled and wandering
No matter what I do
No matter what I try to do
You know it's late right now
It's currently late
And every song sings of us
Every song I hear is a reminder of us
I guess these singers know somehow
Singers somehow capture our story
And my life they must discuss
My life becomes a topic of discussion for them
But I left the pictures of you behind
I left behind photographs of you
Because I didn't want to dwell on you
To avoid dwelling on thoughts of you
But even the streets speak your name out here
Even the streets echo your name
And last night's movie too
And the memories from last night's movie
The mountains now in the rearview
The mountains are now in the rearview mirror
As the tired road creeps on and on and on
The road continues tirelessly
Perhaps I'll leave you in colorado
Contemplating leaving you in Colorado
With this Monday morning fog
In the fog of this Monday morning
But the pictures await me back home
Photographs of you are waiting for me at home
And there the streets whisper, whisper your name
The streets at home quietly remind me of you
Escape it seems impossible sometimes
Escape from thoughts of you feels impossible at times
And I'm the one to blame
And I acknowledge that I am to blame
But I left the pictures of you behind
Left behind pictures to avoid dwelling on you
Because I didn't want to dwell on you
Resisting the urge to focus on memories of you
But even the streets speak your name out here
Even the streets in this new place speak your name
And last night's movie too
And memories from the recent movie linger
I tried leaving you behind
Attempted to leave you behind
But you wouldn't stay
However, you remained with me
Thank God you didn't
Grateful that you didn't leave
