[01:08.76]One soft infested summer, me and Terry became friends
[01:13.81]Trying in vain to breathe the fire we was born in
[01:19.22]Catching rides to the outskirts, tying faith between our teeth
[01:23.94]Sleeping in that old abandoned beach house, getting wasted in the heat and
[01:30.20]Hiding on the backstreets
[01:35.14]Hiding on the backstreets
[01:39.32]With a love so hard and filled with defeat
[01:43.97]Running for our lives at night on them backstreets
[01:48.24]🎵
[01:56.71]Slow dancing in the dark on the beach at Stockton's Wing
[02:01.83]Where desperate lovers park, we sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings
[02:07.12]Huddled in our cars, waiting for the bells that ring
[02:11.73]In the deep heart of the night, when you let loose of everything to go
[02:17.21]Running on the backstreets
[02:22.24]Running on the backstreets
[02:26.19]Terry, you swore we'd live forever
[02:31.71]Taking it on them backstreets together
[02:36.23]🎵
[02:44.58]Endless juke joints and Valentino drag
[02:48.58]Where dancers scrape the tears up off the streets, dressed down in rags
[02:53.65]Running into the darkness, some hurt bad, some really dying
[02:58.44]At night sometimes it seemed you could hear that whole damn city crying
[03:02.99]Blame it on the lies that killed us
[03:05.54]Blame it on the truth that ran us down
[03:08.21]You can blame it all on me, Terry, it don't matter to me now
[03:13.19]When the breakdown hit at midnight, there was nothing left to say
[03:18.15]But I hated him, and I hated you when you went away
[03:24.92]Whoa!
[03:27.62]Whoa!
[03:32.05]🎵
[03:51.84]Laying here in the dark, you're like an angel on my chest
[03:56.58]Just another tramp of hearts crying tears of faithlessness
[04:01.74]Remember all the movies, Terry, we'd go see?
[04:06.18]Trying to learn how to walk like the heroes we thought we had to be
[04:11.34]And after all this time to find, we're just like all the rest
[04:16.24]Stranded in the park and forced to confess to
[04:21.99]Hiding on the backstreets
[04:26.89]Hiding on the backstreets
[04:30.65]Where we swore forever friends, hey
[04:35.95]On the backstreets until the end
[04:40.39]🎵

[05:27.57]Hiding on the backstreets
[05:29.71]It was alright
[05:32.16]We'll go hiding on the backstreets tonight

[06:04.64]Oh-oh
