The sirens ring, the shots ring out
A stranger cries, he screams out loud
I had my world, strapped against my back
I held my hands, and never knew how to act
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartache
Well good old me, I was a homeless man
Singing songs, I knew complete
On the steps alone, this guitar in hand
These fifty years stood where he stands
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartache
Walking home, on the streets
The river winds, they move my feet
The subway steam, like silhouetes in dreams
You stood by me, just like moonbeams
Well the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
Yeah 6th avenue heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartache
Looked out the window, and got up on that street
And gone like midnight, was that wind
But I sit here with 6-strings, leane against that wall
And all those things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed, on a shooting star
Just like me, just moved on back home
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
6th Avenue Heartach
Well the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now it's drawing me in
Yeah 6th avenue heartache
