Westway by Sticky Fingers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We tip-toed through the sky, building castles
And nothing ever bothered us at all
We got dizzy on a staircase and chose to fall
Only to find a lonesome Newtown
How you gonna sleep with your head so high?
You should come with me to the dress-up party
'Freaks' is the theme, and yeah, that's my nature
Come, let's indulge in outlandish behavior
I wanna save ya

[Chorus]
I'm home when you're there
Alone don't compare
I feel, she comes
The westway, the glitter, and the slums
The westway, the glitter, and the slums

[Verse 2]
I started all the world wars, the hole up in the sky
Sucked the liquid out the ground, s'pose I'm darker in the light
Now I'm getting down because I'm always feeling fine
The cobblestone streets paved my way through the night
I'm not normal
[Chorus]
I'm home when you're there
Alone don't compare
I feel, she comes
The westway, the glitter, and the slums
The westway, the glitter, and the slums
I'm here, but I'm lost
Wide awake as I stare at the sun
The westway, the glitter, and the slums
The westway, the glitter, and the slums

[Outro]
How you gonna sleep with your head so high?
How you gonna sleep with your head so high?
