The Empty Boulevard Lyrics
I been running through this day tryna reach the end
These feelings I got ‘r’ driving me round the bend
Looking out my window from this motel room
Believing that things have just got to change soon

And outside the Boulevard is empty ‘cept for hookers and whores
And anyway it’s raining so I ain’t going there no more
I don’t know why I’m here I tried my best to be true
If only you could have loved me
The way that I tried to love you

You see the sunset’s hidden from my view
Storm clouds hang above Rue Morgue Avenue
The strip lights flash drawing bugs to its light
In the shadows lurk dark riders of the night

And anyway the Boulevard is empty ‘cept for hookers and whores
And anyway it’s raining so I ain’t going there no more
I wish I wasn’t here I tried my best to be true
If only you could have loved me
The way I wanted to love you

The silver moon is rising high above the stars
I can make out the sign on the hill through the bars
This room seems so cold without you by my side
I can’t get warm no matter with who I tried

It’s something I have to learn to accept, what can I do
I know in my heart that I can’t be with you
You were the best thing that I never had
No matter what I do I can’t get you out of my head

Anyway the Boulevard is empty ‘cept for hookers and whores
And anyway it’s raining so I ain’t going there no more
How I wish I was there I tried my best to be true
If only you could have loved me

Anyway the Boulevard is empty ‘cept for hookers and whores
And anyway it’s raining so I ain’t going there no more
How I wish I was there I tried my best to be true
If only you could have loved me
The way that I longed to love you

Paul Robert Thomas
