Woke up cold one tuesday,

I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick,

I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life,

So I quickly opened the wardrobe,

Pulled out some jeans and a t-shirt that seemed clean,

Topped it off with a pair of old shoes,

That were ripped around the seams,

And I thought these shoes just don't suit me.

[Chorus]

Hey, I put some new shoes on,

And suddenly everything is right,

I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,

It's so inviting,

Oh, short on money,

But long on time,

Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,

And I'm running late,

And I don't need an excuse,

'cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes.

Woke up late one thursday,

And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes,

And I felt like there were two days missing,

As I focused on the time,

And I made my way to the kitchen,

But I had to stop from the shock of what I found,

A room full of all off my friends all dancing round and round,

And I thought hello new shoes,

Bye bye them blues.

[Chorus]

Take me wandering through these streets,

Where bright lights and angels meet,

Stone to stone they take me on,

I'm walking till' the break of dawn. [x2]

[Chorus x2]

Take me wandering through these streets
