Christy Moore - Metropolitan Avenue Lyrics
First days in the loft I thought I might live, new faces, new streets
No cash in the hand was making me thing, what now? what's coming next?
That's not to say I wasn't welcomed, I was welcomed, I was taken in
I took the bait when I was hunted, I was wretched, I was freezing
Will I ever see your face again?
Don't run like a dog I know how it feels without heat, without love
Ran free in the park like Jekyll and Hyde, me and Pete, me and Pete
Up half the night unwilling witness to some strangers feud
Deep underground I hear the notes of some old gamblers blues
Metropolitan avenue standing tall in the winter snow
I just didn't have a place to go
There goes the night and now the dawn begins to filter through
I took the bait when I was hunted, didn't know that I was failing you
Metropolitan avenue standing tall in the winter sun
I'll be back with you before I'm done
Metropolitan avenue standing tall in the winter sun
I'll be back with you before I'm done

Christy Moore Metropolitan Avenue Comments
I had the privilege of meeting Noel in Vancouver British Columbia. A beautiful man , with beautiful eyes and a lovely family . Sleep angel .
christy we all love you dont worry
I was welcomed...I was taken in
Noel was such a cool guy, used to stay in my house in London and I used to hang out with him when I moved to Dublin. Such an amazing song writer and no body covers his song as well as he did. I remember him singing this song.....miss him!
me too :(
Your uncle Noel was profoundly talented. I was introduced to his songwriting through the superb Mary Black, and her wonderful renditions of his work.
Talented songwriter...
