Suicide Alley Lyrics - A Few Small Repairs - Shawn Colvin

Wait for me by the banshee tree 

Let me be your wailing companion 

And pass 'em on by, don't look 'em in the eye 

Suicide Alley is callin' 

 

And you thought you were dreaming 

But you could wake up dead and you'll never ever know what's real 

All this damage is runnin' loose in your head 

And it really matters to me 

 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

 

Downtown baby, it's a million to one 

You might as well name your poison 

And stand in line by the exit sign 

Suicide Alley is waiting 

 

You're a loose cannonball on a sinking ship 

From the belly of the beast, shot from the hip 

But you don't have to be going down the dark hall 

You're not tied to the chair, you're not nailed to the wall 

 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

 

Sitting naked by the window in the middle of the night 

I can see you wearing your halo 

If only in the daybreak of the dirty street light 

I know baby wasn't born to follow 

 

You know I wasn't born, I was spat out at the wall 

And nobody even knew my name 

The sun hatched me out, cradle and all 

On the corner of first and insane 

 

For the souls of the departed and the renegades of love 

You and me we gotta be all we dreamed of 

In the ruins of mischief through the ravages of time 

You got a place in this world of mine 

 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

Oh, no, baby don't go 

Walkin' down Suicide Alley 

Down Suicide Alley
