I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls that hold me inside
I wanna reach out and touch the flame
Where the streets have no name (Oh-oh)
I wanna feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust-cloud disappear without a trace
I wanna take shelter from the poison rain, yeah
Where the streets have no name (Oh-oh)
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
♪ ♪ ♪
The city's a flood and our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name (Oh-oh)
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do (Oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah)
(Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
I wanna go there with you
