It was a cold and wet december day When we touched the ground at jfk Snow was melting on the ground On bls I heard the sound Of an angel New york, like a christmas tree Tonight this city belongs to me Angel Soul love...this love wont let me go So long...angel of harlem Birdland on fifty-three The street sounds like a symphony We got john coltrane and a love supreme Miles says shes got to be an angel Lady day got diamond eyes She sees the truth behind the lies Angel Soul love...this love wont let me go So long...angel of harlem Angel of harlem

Lover, I'm on the street Gonna go where the bright lights And the big city meet With a red guitar...on fire Desire She's a candle burning in my room Yeah I'm like the needle, needle and spoon Over the counter with a shotgun Pretty soon everybody got one And the fever when I'm beside her Desire, desire... And the fever...getting higher Desire, desire...burning, burning She's the dollars She's my protection Yeah she's a promise In the year of election Oh sister, I can't let you go Like a preacher stealing hearts At a traveling show For love or money money money money money money money money money money money And the fever, getting higher Desire, desire, desire, desire

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 See that 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 Were still building Then burning down love, burning down love And when I go there I go there with you... (its all I can do) The cities a flood And our love turns to rust Were beaten and blown by the wind Trampled into dust Ill show you a place High on ta desert plain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Still building Then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there I go there with you
