Falling Shoes

Falling shoes

Quitting shoes, wedding shoes

Walking shoes around

I put on my falling shoes

And let them take me down

Take me down the warehouse blocks

The shuttered streets of down

Past the driver windows

Where coffee drinkers yawn

Falling shoes Fallling shoes

Falling shoes

Take me through the shelter walks

Where lamps still burn a useless glow

Night shift workers going home

Old men with no place to go

Take me down beneath the bridge

Where crooners cough in morning dews

If you want to come with me

You'll need a pair of falling shoes

Falling shoes Fallling shoes

Falling shoes

Take me down the riverside

Where warehouse workers lose their sight

Dogs search piles of broken cars

Sea birds crow on dynamite

Quitting shoes, wedding shoes

Walking shoes around

Just put on your falling shoes and

Let me walk you down

Falling shoes Fallling shoes

Falling shoes
