Vanessa Carlton - Spring Street Lyrics






Nah, nah-nah-nah, nah nah nah
Nah, nah-nah-nah, nah nah nah

I was heading down to Spring Street with a suitcase in my hand
Filled with love and life and grand illusion,
I knew you'd understand
I left you by the stairwell
And your eyes were wet with tears
Mother you knew you had to let me go,
Even after all these years

And we sing
Nah, nah-nah-nah, nah nah nah
She said
Nah-nah-nahnah nah nah nah
Walk on
Nah-nah nah, nah, nah nah nah
You're alright
Nah-nah, nah, nah nah nah nah

And I found myself a new life
I've been living with some friends
We hold on to dreams and live like kings,
Like the days will never end
I left him by the statue and his eyes were filled with tears
Lover you knew you had to let me go
Even after all these years
And we sing

Nah-nahnah-nah nah nah nah
He said
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
Walk on
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
You're alright
Nah-nah, nah, nah nah nah nah

Everything changes friends become strangers
What we hold so dear slips away
The past keeps on fading,
But I'll never forget you
It's hard to see that you're a part of me
Even when we have to say

Nah-nah, nah, nah,nah nah nah
Walk on
Nah-nah, nah, nah nah nah nah nah
We sing
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
Well alright
Nah-nah, nah, nah nah nah nah

And I moved out of the city
To start a family of my own
When I look into my daughter's eyes,
I don't feel so alone
And as I walk her down to Spring Street
She holds on to my hand
Mother you knew my eyes would be wet with tears and now I understand

Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
And I said
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
Walk on
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
Thank you
Nah-nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah
Walk on,
You're alright
Can't hold on
Nah-nah,nah, nah, nah nah nah

    I totally love how she really moved and started a family of her own and had a daughter like she wrote in her song

  4. C.... ....

    yes, actually it does

  5. 1.... ....

    the gospel of Philip is one of the dead sea scrolls. I felt like posting it here. Does that answer your vague statement?

  6. T.... ....

    How? How is she not more popular? That I will never understand.

    T.... ....

    i think most people prefer to be spoon fed their bland music. vanessa is for people who really think and feel. she is exceptional and truly underrated

    T.... ....

    @R J so true

  7. 1.... ....

    (Hymn to Athena)
    Inspire me, Muse, and fill my mind with song,
    So I may praise Athena, worshipped long
    Ago, but not forgotten through the years
    Αμήν Βανέσα
    Of dark denial; the world's two hemispheres
    Beseech the Bright-eyed Maid to grant Her grace
    And let us gaze again upon the face
    That urged the heroes long ago to strive
    For noble deeds and glory still alive.

  8. 1.... ....

    Άγνωστος και αγαπημένος

  9. 1.... ....

    The apostles said to the disciples, "May our whole offering obtain salt." They called Sophia "salt." Without it no offering is acceptable. But Sophia is without child. For this reason she is called "a trace of salt." But where they will be in their own way, the Holy Spirit will also be, and her children are many. (from the gospel of Philip)
