These Streets

[Verse 1] Today I saw another place I can cross off my list A place I still remember where we used to kiss Now it can join the buses and planes and the trains In the garbage heap of memories at the back of my brain [Verse 2] And yeah we used to travel every weekend we could I thought it was for us but how I misunderstood You were only running from your past five years On a break up so severe you never got to the tears [Pre-Chorus] And oh is this really what you wanted Now your past in only haunting What you're supposed to have with me [Chorus] I got these streets, doesn't matter where I'm going I got these streets, walk away from what I'm knowing I got these streets, walls that never see me crying Strangers pass by, where you were once there by my side [Verse 3] You would be the driver while the passenger seat Was filled with just a man you never wanted to meet And my mother even told me that you weren't so discreet And we had to face our demons on our own terms you see [Verse 4] I suppose I should be thankful or even be glad That I helped you find a place at least that wasn't so sad But now i'm just a moment where you'll look back and smile So I'll look to my speedo and count every mile [Pre-Chorus + Chorus] [Post-Chorus] Ooh, ooh, ooh Strangers pass me by Ooh, ooh [Bridge] Everyone says let go What am I holding to But I can't even tell them Cause I no longer know you But [Chorus + Post-Chorus] [Outro] Once there by my side Ooh, ooh, ooh Now the strangers pass me by Ooh, ooh, yeah I miss you Ooh, ooh, ooh Strangers pass me by Ooh Strangers pass by where you were once there by my side
