On Every Street — текст песни (Mark Knopfler)

Theres gotta be a record of you someplace

You gotta be on somebodys books

The lowdown - a picture of your face

Your injured looks

The sacred and profane

The pleasure and the pain

Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete

And its your face Im looking for on every street



A ladykiller - regulation tattoo

Silver spurs on his heels

Says - what can I tell you, as Im standing next to you

She threw herself under my wheels

Oh its a dangerous road

And a hazardous load

And the fireworks over liberty explode in the heat

And its your face Im looking for on every street



A three-chord symphony crashes into space

The moon is hanging upside down

I dont know why it is Im still on the case

Its a ravenous town

And you still refuse to be traced

Seems to me such a waste

And every victory has a taste thats bittersweet

And its your face Im looking for on every street
