Dire Straits - On Every Street lyrics
[Dire Straits - On Every Street lyrics]
You gotta be on somebody's books
The lowdown a picture of your face
Your injured looks the sacred and profane
The pleasure and the pain
Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete
And it's your face I'm looking
For on every street
A ladykiller regulation tattoo
Silver spurs on his heels
Says "What can I tell you as
I'm standing next to you"
She threw herself under my wheels
Oh it's a dangerous road
And a hazardous load
And the fireworks over liberty
Explode in the heat
And it's your face I'm looking
For on every street
A three-chord symphony crashes into space
The moon is hanging upside down
I don't know why it is I'm still on the case
It's a ravenous town
And you still refuse to be traced
Seems to me such a waste
And every victory has a
Taste that's bittersweet
And it's your face I'm looking
For on every street
Yeah it's your face I'm looking
For on every street
