Lyrics

Couldn't feel my legs and hadn't slept since my compass broke
Out on a short street sidewalk now it's stuck on north
Lights shot out into the sky in shades of red
Under the Main Street bridge I'd lay my head
?
Maybe I left my home too soon
Beat my insomnia by howling at the moon
?
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down
Scarlet Town
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
They lift me up off my feet somehow
Scarlet Town
?
Unlocked an elevator shaft just to catch a wink
Stopped the door from closing with the bottle I drank
Often I'd cry to St. Joseph each night I prayed
He'd never hear me though, would he, through the haze
?
I don't care how far you've come
Only time will tell if it matters to anyone
?
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down
Scarlet Town
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
They lift me up off my feet somehow
Scarlet Town
?
Angels I have heard on high
Can't I get a bit more time?
Give me one more chance I'll do it right
?
Angels that I passed on high
They said hello as they walked on by
My cup runneth over with nickels and dimes
?
Here's to every street etched in my mind
Would you remember me when you see that city shine?
?
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down
Scarlet Town

I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down
Scarlet Town
I miss the lights over Scarlet Town
They lift me up off my feet somehow
Scarlet Town
