the same old loose lipped cannon
speaks for you today
alone without your talent
there’s not much to say
love is all gone wrong
so many lost today
and the reasons why they’ve
vanished in the haze
(2*) calling downtown
no reasons do they owe you
tell me how’d you think it came to be
calling downtown
calling downtown
how they come to love you
when you didn’t want to set them free
G C(with intro)
we don’t forgive to know you
will you ever see
know reasons do we owe you
how’d it come to be
the leaves have lost their shadows
deep amongst the grey
i hope that you’ll be friendly
i heard someone say
(2*) calling downtown
no reasons do they owe you
tell me how’d you think it came to be
calling downtown
calling downtown
how they come to love you
when you didn’t want to set them free
Instrumental over verse
(a few times)
it’s a stranger (calling downtown)
the further away you get
(calling downtown, calling downtown)
it’s a stranger (calling downtown)
the further away you get
its easy to start from the back of the line
where there’s no one to tell you you’re still behind
it’s a stranger the further away you get
and you never miss your friends
until you can’t relate to the people beside you here today .
it’s a stranger the further away you get
calling downtown
calling downtown
