Paloma Faith - Streets Of Glory Lyrics






There's no angels left in this scene
We both landed somewhere in between
You can't teach 'cause you'll never learn
There's nothing left
There's no return

The more you talk the less it means
What I want's not what I need
While we're flesh and blood I still bleed
I know you're bad for me

But maybe on the streets of glory
I see you on the streets of glory

It may hurt to leave but it's worse to hold your hand
The shattered glass it falls upon places where you stand
I will be your memento mori
While you hide behind your made up story

The more you talk the less it means
What I want's not what I need
While we're flesh and blood and I still bleed
I know you're bad for me

But maybe on the streets of glory
I see you on the streets of glory

Maybe one day
I see you on those streets
All those glittering streets
Streets of glory
And you'll take my hand
Take me down to the river
Wash my sins away
And you come with me
Won't you take my hand
Meet me on the streets of glory
See you on the streets of glory

    This song always makes me emotional...when I hear it my heart sinks because it affects me so much. My husband died from Cancer 4 years ago and shortly after he passed away I heard this song. I found Paloma Faith by watching Miss you Already and looked up "The Crazy Ones" because I wanted to know who was singing such a touching and beautiful song and from that moment on I was hooked on her music and that incredible voice of hers. I've listened to every song on all 4 CD's countless times and each time I do I pick up something new in the lyrics. Paloma Faith is a Genius when it comes to writing and performing her music. If I could thank her personally for what she did to help me cope with losing my husband I would do so happily. She is an amazing person.

    [Verse 1]
    There’s no angels left in this scene
    We both landed somewhere in between
    You can’t teach cause you’ll never learn
    There’s nothing left, there’s no return

    [Chorus]
    The more you talk, the less it means
    And what I want’s not what I need
    While we’re flesh and blood and I still bleed
    I know you’re bad for me
    But maybe on the streets of glory
    I’ll see you on the streets of glory

    [Verse 2]
    It may hurt to leave but is worse to hold your hand
    The shattered glass it falls upon places where you stand
    I will be your momento mori
    While you hide behind all your made up stories

    [Chorus]
    The more you talk, the less it means
    And what I want’s not what I need
    While we’re flesh and blood and I still bleed
    I know you’re bad for me
    But maybe on the streets of glory
    I’ll see you on the streets of glory

    [Bridge]
    Baby one day, I’ll see you on those streets
    Oh those glittering streets, streets of glory
    And you’ll take my hand
    And take me down to the river, wash my sins away
    Oh, and you’ll come with me Won't you take my hand
    Meet me on the streets of glory
    I’ll see you on the streets of glory

    I love Paloma Faith. I was turned on to her about a year ago and have rocked out to both her albums ever since. Extremely talented vocalist with the deeper lyrics reminiscent of Stevie Nicks. Very, very impressed. I'm really surprised she didn't blow up bigger in the States considering the success Adel has enjoyed. Paloma is every bit as talented. IMO

  13. E.... K....

    i love this song

  14. D.... O....

    You really could use this song in a film. Most likely a superhero. Sort of like at the end when the hero realises something about themselves, and is able to defeat the villain. Actually I might try writing that...

  15. T.... ....

  24. N.... V....

    Depends on how you choose to view Glory, or anything for that matter- which is the point. Mind over matter. Soul over mind. God over soul. All is full of love. DON'T FORGET. It's easy to do. <3

  30. S.... D....

    She doesn't get nearly as much of the recognition that she deserves. Strong, British, female art which tells honest stories of difficult love scenarios and heartache, put so eloquently to music. Paloma Faith, I admire you so much!
