Broadway And Briar Lyrics - Singles - Broadways

i wait for my friends to get off work and stand and smoke 

and a crazy man sits next to me 

looking down at a pile of his broken dreams 

and he won't even look at me i'm still young 

and have so far to go 

and he says to a passerby with a sad sad smile, 

"does anyone know?" 

"who do i have to kill to see a familiar face in this town? 

it seems like all my old friends have moved awa y" 

i feel like i know what he means 

will 10 years go by and no one remember my name? 

i dont want it to be that way 

but it happened to this guy and i'm exactly the same as him 

but i'm young and have so far to go 

and i've seen what happens to pe ople 

it's just years and years of letting lonliness grow he said - 

..he means youth doesn't last forever and neither do dreams.
