Jewel and The Wallflowers - 6th Avenue Heartache

Lyrics :
Sirens ring, the shots ring out
A stranger cries, screams out loud
I had my world strapped against my back
I held my hands, I never knew how to act

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache

Below me was a homeless man
I'm singin' songs I knew complete
On the steps alone, his guitar in hand
It's fifty years, stood where he stands

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache

There was a man down at the corner store
He said "Sweetheart in life you can't want nothing more
than just a little love, ooh a little love
ooh a little love, that's all"

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache

Look out the window, down upon that street
And gone like a midnight was that man
But I see his six strings laid against that wall
And all his things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star
Just like me-just moved on

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache
And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache
And now it's drawin' me in

And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawin' me in
6th Avenue heartache

love this song and I looked and looked for it until I found it.addictfree

[remase73]

Too bad I didn't get to upload the entire song .. it's mostly the instrumental beginning and end I had to cut off but still .. it is ashame!

[remase73]

So sorry .. had to cut off both at the beginning as at the end or else the file was too large to upload.

[blindnarcissus]

she ruined it

[drewlsy]

she was living out of her car bf she was discovered. Jewel has lost a lot of her earthiness which was appealing because it made her feel down to earth and approachable. But apparently her mgt. wanted to promote her to a wider audience, and did a glammmed-up makeover which i feel, does not suit her.

[detacher0123]

yea

Amazing Amazing Amazing Wesome and beautiful song.

[Susan2352]

@remase73 wow she had the bump in here nose fixed....and she lost weight!...don't get me wrong shes beautiful ...but on her way to the Botox farm in the sky.........

@jaevairny 'sonorous' is a fitting descriptive, might I embellish and add, 'vulnerably beatific' as well. Thank you - and yes - pop will eat itself! Kidding, I appreciate all 'art of noise' (including the actual band)...anyway lately, seems Jewel has come full circle these days despite the make-over as i have noticed she's playing more intimate shows with less band and more just her and the guitar. Kind of like a Jewel 2.0 or somethin'.

[jaevairny]

@drewlsy I completely agree. When people ask what music I like, my list usually includes "Old-school Jewel, before she sold out and went corporate." She has this beautiful sonorous voice that just sounds its best complemented by a simple acoustic guitar. She was never meant to do pop.

[HECTOR2006ELPASO]

I'm sorry, but Jewel and this song just don't mix. Nice pictures, though. She's beautiful.

[spynalchrd]

Jewel was harmonizing in the chorus, and plus the recording isn't the greatest.

The reason it sounds a bit odd is cause her voice sounds more prominent than Dylans.

They should have turned her down a little during the chorus or just switch melody and harmony parts.

She still sounds amazing in her solo.

[developnc]

Is Jewel tone deaf? It sure seem that way in this one.

[extreeeeeemist]

jewel is one of the most pretty women of our time

[jakobluke]

Bob or Jakob?
