Lyrics

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 sunlight on my face

I 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 still building then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there I go there with you

It's all I can do


The city's aflood

And our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust

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 still building then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there I go there with you

It's all I can do


Our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, and I see love

See our love turn to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, when I go there

I go there with you

It's all I can do
