about
Sidestreet is energetic song that celebrates life. No matter the setbacks or love fiascos, as none of these truly exist when we take them as signs or necessary turns for growing along the way.
In life, just like in big cities, authentic experiences are not to be found on the busy main avenues of vanity, pointless ambition or compliance, but on the sidestreets. Its through them where we find special corners and our real selfs. And the stroll is much more enjoyable when we have the bliss of music.
lyrics
Blue old town
Chance brought me over to you
The lion bridge cast the spell
The night when our time froze still
I see an old man cry
About two souls that could not become one
And I can´t live up
to the high roads across your heart
When the sun lies down on your blue sidestreet
I see the neon signs of a faded dream
But I can hear that voice inside
From the day I came to make you mine
I see a raging sea
Down where the old river flows
No wailing wall, no regrets
Just pack up good memories and drive on
Just drive on!
Cause the road is kind
When you crank this rock´n´roll sound…
Ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh…
When sun lies down on your blue sidestreet
I see the neon signs of a faded dream
One morning you were nothing more
Than just a trip down memory lane
But sidestreets are my kind of place
Through them I find my way
Woh, ooh, oooh, oooh
Ooh, ooh, oooh, oh, ooh…
Make you mine!
I´m hanging on a sidestreet
Hanging on a sidestreet
I´m hanging on a sidestreet
On a sidestreet!
