Olive Street is a place we all go when we miss someone so much that it actually causes pain. Just when  you think you are lost in the depths, a friend comes along and picks you up. It's strange how the memory of pain disappears when someone you love gives you that moment, that breath of life.

Olive Street

I’m down on Olive Street, lost in the rain

And friends are far between, me and the pain

And are we are, all fallin down

Have we all gone so far around?

I’m down on Olive Street, lost in the rain

By chance we meet, on memory lane

And are we are, all fallin down

Have we all gone so far around?

 

I can be all the things, you wanted from me

Can’t be any of the things, you wanted me to be

It was so easy, just to make life for you

It’s gone so crazy, dark without you

And I know that when you go around, you take a chance

You can forget words and stumble in the dance

It was so easy, to find time for you

It’s gone so crazy, dark without you

 

I’m down on Olive Street, lost in the rain

By chance we meet, on memory lane

And are we are, all fallin down

Have we all gone so far around?

I’m down on Olive Street, lost in the rain

And friends are far between, me and the pain

And are we are, all fallin down

Have we all gone so far around?
