I post new videos every Thursday and Sunday.

My name is Eelke. I'm a singer, songwriter and musician from The Netherlands. I play (acoustic) covers and my own original songs. Check out my videos and let me know what you think!
This is an acoustic cover of Avenues, a song by Whiskeytown. Recorded on the 25th of September 2018.

I play a lot of acoustic gigs. Mostly my own songs, but occasionally it's nice to play a cover version. Avenues is one that I love to play. I'm a big Ryan Adams fan, and this is from one of his records with Whiskeytown called Strangers Almanac (1997). Check it out!

Lyrics

No, the cabs here, they can't run down to your house
Sometimes I'll sit and wish I were somewhere else
So let's dim the daylights for us sweethearts that we are
Sometimes I find myself still lying in your arms

All the sweethearts of the world
Are out dancing in the places
Where me and all my friends go to hide our faces

Avenues run one way
Streets they run the same
Something in the air here
Still keeps me away

Though the cabs here, they can't take me to your house
I get directions and pretend I was somewhere else

All the sweethearts of the world are out littering the bars
And I am still avenues from any place you are

You know avenues run one way
The streets they run the same
It's going to take a lot of shit for me
To not stay away
