Where the Streets Have No Name Songtext
von Kurt Elling

I want to run, I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel the light on my face
I want to see the dust-cloud
Disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter
From the poison rain

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We′re always building and burning down love
And burning down love
But when I go there
I'll go there with you
It′s all I can do


The city's flood, and our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
And trampled into dust
But I′ll show you a place
High on a desert plain

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We′re always building and then burning down love
And tearing down love
But when I go there
I'll go there with you
It′s all I can do, it's all I can do

And even then we go on burning with love
And tearing down love
But when I go there
I′ll go there with you

'Cause even when we go on burning with love (burning with love)
We go on burning down love (burning down love)
But I′ll go there with you
When I go there, I'll go there with you
It's all I can do
Where the streets have no name
