'Downtown Lights' a soft rock, blues song by John Haydock.

Описание: Written, performed and produced by John Haydock.
(That means I wrote it all folks and I played all the instruments, guitar, bass, keyboards etc and sang. I also produced the track.)

Available on the album 'Talking to the Night' - out now:

I'm loving the new Bruce Springsteen Tracks 2 set. Got inspired to write this tune.......I liked the idea of downtown lights and someone just slipping away into them.....

For those that like Chris Rea, John Illsley, Bruce Springsteen.

LYRICS:
Stranded in the wasteland
Of a faithless kiss
You can burn along the border
On a night like this

I reach out to you darling
Watch you slip away
In the downtown lights
Downtown lights

Now there's ghosts on the river
Where we used to meet
Some nights I hear them whisper
Through the empty streets

You step out on the rail
Fall into the rain
In the downtown lights
Downtown lights

Where the promise still waits
At the edge of the grey
In the downtown lights
Downtown lights
I still see you
In the downtown lights
I turn my collar up against the wind
And I watch you slip away

We twist in the darkness
Of a waking dream'
In the shadow of the heart
Where the truth gets in

You step out on the rail
Fall into the rain
In the downtown lights
Downtown lights
Downtown lights
