Pleasant Street


You don't remember what to say
You don't remember what to do
You don't remember where you been
You don't remember who to choose

You wheel you steal
But you feel it when you kneel

Down...

Chorus
All the stony people
Walking around in their Christian licorice clothes
I can't hesitate
Knowing I can't wait
For Pleasant Street

The sunshine reminds you
Of concreted skies
You thought you were flying
But you opened your eyes
And you found yourself falling
Back down to yesterday's lies
Hello Pleasant Street we're back again

You wheel, you steal,
You feel, you kneel

Down...

(Chorus)

At twilight your lover
Comes to your room
He's gonna spin you,

He's gonna weave you
All around his emerald loom

And but softly he'll whisper
All around your ear
"Sweet lover, I love Pleasant Street"

I wheel I steal
I feel my way down to kneel
Down...
