Description i saw you standing on an empty
                                            street



we we're there at the same time. in our own worlds.

i happened to be listening to a track recorded by annie lennox earlier in the day this was shot.

sometimes i walk away when all i really wanna do
is love and hold you right
there is just one thing i can say
nobody loves you this way
it's alright
can't you see the downtown lights?

in love we're all the same
we're walking down an empty street
and with nobody calling on the phone
empty streets, empty nights, the downtown lights

tonight and every night
let's go walking down this empty street
let's walk in the cool evening light
wrong or right
be at my side
under the downtown lights
and it will be alright

the neon's and the cigarettes
rented rooms and rented cars
the crowded trains, the empty bars
chimney tops and trumpets
the golden lights, the loving prayers
the coloured shoes, the empty streets

and the downtown lights



i saw you standing on an empty
                                            street

peace

postscript: interesting how the art you like best happens by accident. i took the series of shots for this all on one street in the city of York in england over the course of a few minutes. i actually had a completely different idea of what i would use them for. when i started to collate this just 'happened'. then i realised that it was following on from : [link] and i had also just chosen a new favorite for my page which, if you look really cements it all together! a final word about the people in the picture.. my step-mom is in the image! she is over to the left, walking away, she has a sweater tied around her waist and a bag on her shoulder..
