SUZANNE VEGA Ludlow Street

Album : " Beauty & Crime " , ( 2007 )

Love is the only thing that matters.
Love is the only thing that's real.
I know we hear this every day.
It's still the hardest thing to feel.

This time
When I go back to Ludlow Street,
I find each stoop and doorway's incomplete,
Without you there.

Another generation's parties.
And it is still the same old scene.
I can recall each morning after.
Painted in nicotene.

This time
When I go back to Ludlow Street,
I find each stoop and doorway's incomplete
Without you there.

All of the people I once knew.
All of the ones I was close to.

Love is the only thing that matters.
Love the only thing that's real,
And when I think about you now
Love is the only thing I feel.

This time
When I go back to Ludlow Street,
I find each stoop and doorway's incomplete
Without you there.

Tim, this time
When I go back to Ludlow Street
I find each stoop and doorway's incomplete
Without you there.

suzanne still sounds good after i first listened to her in 1985

[SeversonShawn]

She's talking about her brother, who died after suffering with alcohol abuse, and the memories that come flooding back when she visits their old haunts. She explained the song when I saw her at at The Dakota, which was an amazing super fabulous show.

Here does Ms.Vega make reference to her father and the settings of her childhood in a latter day return to New York? So it seemeth me.

[moom1000]

The drumming's so exquisite... (as is the rest of the song). I've probably listened to it a hundred times.

[TheTvstuff]
