The Early Avenues Lyrics

In the Early Avenues

Somewhere 'round one or two

Wet streets whisper along

And dogs sleep under the warm electric light

In the Early Avenues

Sloshing home in soggy shoes

The rain wants to bury it all

And wash you 'til you're reborn to endless night

Is this home where the light shines

Is this home where the light shines

Am I getting nearer

Am I getting nearer

Am I getting nearer

The storm won't have its way tonight

The storm won't have me tonight

I'm almost back

I'm almost back

I'm almost back

I'm almost back

To where

The dogs sleep under the warm electric light

All these memories buzz about

My brain like bees on honey

Or flies on shit

It's funny

To look back now
