I've been walkin' these streets alone
ain't no comfort for a heart of stone
you see a shadow fallin' in the rain
you find hope you better look again
We're hungry for the bitter fire
driven by a wild desire
stagger through the dust and haze
broken in these empty days
Baby, don't make a murmur
baby now don't you speak
they need a light to shine on through
down on Angel Street
Out in the land of mercy
over by the waterline
they need a light to shine on through
but it ain't no friend of mine
This storm will never break tonight
so you'd better take some care tonight
there's a hammer beatin' hard inside
you can run but you can never hide
