They built this city outside the walls
You and I, we stood and watched it grow
And you can lay these bricks on tower tall
No one will think you can turn it into gold
So till the ceilings on the floor
We don't build the holding just to watch you fall
It happens, a feeling, come on like a crescendo
The moment, withstand it, bleeding against my window
Yeah, it's all mine
So baby, the street sounds, that's when I feel the wind blow
Let's take these tickets and pay the toll
We don't really need a car to tow home
When you're filling up the tank, let it overflow
And listen to the static on the telephone
There's no need to understand
Just get your things, and step outside the door
It happens, a feeling, come on like a crescendo
The moment, withstand it, bleeding against my window
Yeah, it's all mine
So baby, the street sounds, that's when I feel the wind blow
