Does anyone have the lyrics to the song Empty Streets? I can never quite make them out while listening and can't find them anywhere on the Internet or on this board. It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

These seem to be correct....

I fell into Paris
Seek out my temptress
So I've been told

In the bar by the theatre
I'm finding my answer
Cleansing my soul

Newspaper covers my feet
Rinsed out here, these empty streets
Everybody that I meet
Touch my life make me complete

Oh, I fell into something
I guess that's how I am
I'm easily led

I fell into Paris
Seek out my temptress
She knows how I've bled

Newspaper covers my feet
Rinsed out here, these empty streets
But everybody that I meet
Touch my life make me complete

Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh

Newspaper covers my feet
Rinsed out here these empty streets
Everybody that I meet
Touch my life make me complete

Newspaper covers my feet
Rinsed out here, these empty streets
Everybody that I meet
Touch my life make me complete
Oh, Oh

Thank you so much, mullin! Those match up with what I thought they were, I just couldn't get the one line in the chorus, "Rinsed out here, these empty streets." I guess I could have just asked for that line, but I wanted to make sure the rest of the lyrics were right. I guess I'm just anal like that.

And thanks for the welcome, dodovox! You can call me Lauren, because, well... that's my name.

Have another question about this song: does anybody know the history of it

When was it written ? As it takes place in Paris, I was wondering if it as any relation to Jeremiah who was studying in Paris, but maybe I'm totally wrong Wink
