Hawley, Richard - Tonight The Streets Are Ours Lyrics






Do you know why you've got feelings in your heart
Don't let fear of feeling fool you
What you see sets you apart
And there's nothing here to bind you,
It's no way for life to start

But do you know that
Tonight - the streets are ours
Tonight - the streets are ours
And these lights in our hearts they tell no lies

Those people, they got nothing in their souls
And they make our TVs blind us
From our vision and our goals
Oh the trigger of time it tricks you
So you have no way to grow

But do you know that
Tonight - the streets are ours
Tonight - the streets are ours
These lights in our hearts, they tell no lies

And no one else can haunt me
The way that you can haunt me
I need to know you want me
I couldn't be without you
And the light that shines around you
No, nothing ever mattered more than not doubting
But tonight the streets are ours

Do you know how to kill loneliness at last
Oh there's so much there to heal dear
And make tears things of the past

But do you know that
Tonight - the streets are ours
Tonight - the streets are ours
These lights in our street are ours
Tonight - the streets are ours
And these lights in our hearts they tell no lies

    Do you know that tonight the streets are ours'
    Tonight the streets are ours
    These lights in our hearts they tell no lies
    Those people they got nothing in their souls
    And they make our TVs blind us
    From our vision and our goals
    Oh, the trigger of time it tricks you
    So you have no way to grow
    But do you know that tonight the streets are ours'
    Tonight the streets are ours
    These lights in our hearts they tell no lies
    And no one else can haunt me
    The way that you can haunt me
    I need to know you want me

    To be honest, I think banksy INVENTED Mr.Brainwash. He has the resources to do so, and Mr.Brainwash kind of seems mentally ill, so it would be easy to make him do stuff like that. So my theory is that banksy made the guy turn into an artist that doesn't care about the actual ART, but instead of the profit that he gets. This seems like something that he would do, because it makes fun of art and artist. So yeah, Mr.Brainwash is not a real artist.

    Exit through the gift shop brings me here 😇

    Elvis resurrected in Sheffield ... it was the first impression that came to my mind when I first discovered and listened to this singular artist! I had the good fortune and the chance to see him on stage in Lyon in France a few years ago during the festival Fourvière nights (in a large Roman theater there is no better acoustic level), I spent a great time listening and watching this great man. An incredible crooner's voice, subtle and luminous melodies, a musical universe far from the standards of the moment. One of the most beautiful strolls, the guitars have a lot of pride in its rich and abundant production (we sometimes think of Chris Isaak and Brian Setzer of Stray Cats).
    Richard Hawley traces his furrow away from the star system.No big thing to throw in the discography of this brilliant songwriter who has made his weapons in the excellent training Pulp.

    Thank you very much for all these beautiful moments in your company, I never tire of listening to you. I continue to follow your musical journey captivating and sublime with interest, curiosity and immense pleasure every time ...

    Copy-Paste Comment

  52. L.... H....

    Dublin brought me here. The week I spent there a couple years ago had me hearing this song everywhere I went. So, now it's all about Richard Hawley. Pretty good going.

  53. G.... G....

    The movie in which this song was put as one of the tracks was betta than black panther cuhhh

    G.... G....

    And all the tracks are betta than black Panthers

  54. Q.... ....

    Danny Duncan anyone ?

    Q.... ....

  56. T.... W....

    Banksy😫

  57. Y.... S....

    cherish it while its protected from capitistic clutches -dreamer dreaming a banksy world

  58. k.... ....

    Could someone recommend more songs that have a similar vibe and style to this one?

    k.... ....

    Maybe Race for the Prize by The Flaming Lips.

    k.... ....

    Or maybe Cybele's Reverie by Stereolab.

    k.... ....

    powerdsister both amazing songs and just what I was looking for, thank you very much

    k.... ....

    My pleasure. Another song from The Flaming Lips, maybe not as good but more similar than the other two : Satellite of You.

  59. a.... ....

    The most woke song ever.

  60. R.... F....

    I got here by way of Heart of Oak, which in turn I got to by way of the Royal Navy's song. Edginess / Speshulness / Snowflakeness asides, I regret nothing.

  61. M.... P....

    Reminds me of the Walker Brothers, circa 1968.

  62. d.... ....

    Gary Winthorpe

    i know this song thanks to BBC Snooker using it for a thing about Sheffield. What a fab song! No idea about Banksy or gift shops though...

  82. R.... F....

    Just heard this track during the snooker final mid session interval where they showcased Sheffield and Crucible Theatre. Never heard this before and Shazam brought me here. Great track 👍🏻

  83. J.... R....

    okay, now that we have all listened to this amazing song due to this great documentary. that leaves one question, am i the only one who thinks that Mr.Brainwash is Banksy' biggest prank yet? like basically saying that art has gone super mainstream and is so watered down nowadays and anybody that slaps shit together can be an artist? revenge for deceiving banks and obey in the beginning of the documentary? idk, that movie left me with 1,000,001 questions

  84. S.... R....

    The Simpsons brought me here.

  85. R.... t....
