Side Streets - Saint Etienne

Written by：Sarah Cracknell/Bob Stanley/Pete Wiggs

The neighborhood that I live in

I've always seen as home

At certain times of the evening

It's like a no go zone

Got cash in my pocket to last the weekend

And I've got features I quite like and don't mind keeping

But still I walk the

Side streets home

Even when I'm on my own

If I let myself believe all the bad press and horror stories

I wouldn't set a foot outside

You say I live in a bubble

I find a bubble's best

At a faint whiff of trouble

Just turn and head due west

Quite light on my feet if I ever need be

As I zip down the street no one ever sees me

That's why I walk the

Side streets home

Even when I'm on my own

If I let myself believe all the bad press and horror stories

I wouldn't set a foot outside

I'm tempting fate I know tell me about it

So nonchalant I know and I don't doubt it

I'll probably get it tomorrow

'Til then I'll walk the

Side streets home

Even when I'm on my own

If I let myself believe

Side streets home

On my own

Believe
