Christy Moore - Metropolitan Avenue lyrics

Your rating:

Noel Brazil
First Days in the loft I thought I might live,new faces
new streets.
No cash in the hand was making me thing,what now? whats
next?
Thats not to say I was'nt welcomed I was welcomed I was
taken in.
I took the bait when I was hunted I was wretched I was
freezing.

Chorus

metropolitan ave standing tall in the winter snow,I'll
be back with you before I go
Dont run like a dog I know how it feels without heat
without love.
ran free in the park like Jekyll and Hyde, me and Pete,
me and Pete.
Up half the night unwilling witness to some strangers
feud.
deep underground I hear the notes of some old gamblers
blues.

Metropolitan etc
This rose will never blossom now it needs light shining
on its back.
this road will never take me out, I've been stopped in
my tracks.
There goes the night and now the sun begins to filter
through,
I took the bait when I was hunted I was wretched did'nt
know that I was failing you

Metropolitan etc

CHRISTY'S COMMENT

I first met Noel Brazil when he came in and played
support to Moving Hearts in the Baggott Inn in
was an extremely nervous performer and a brilliant
songwriter. He recorded a number of albums before
passing on- far too  was ill at ease with the
world but I always loved to meet him.I sang another of
his songs "Suffocate" in the Unfinished Revolution
album and Mary Black has recorded many of his songs
most notably "Ellis Island"
