In this upbeat and ethereal track, Dan Smith reflects on memorable streets from his past, painting unbreakable connections between the physical place and the memories he formed there. Smith also reminisces about an important place on “Durban Skies”:
In the heat, try to love
These streets
[…]
Where...
[Intro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1]
These streets are yours, you can keep them
I don't want them
They pull me back and I surrender
To the memories I run from
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we have paved these streets
With moments of defeat
[Chorus]
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
Oh, I won't show my face here anymore
[Verse 2]
These streets are yours, you can keep them
In my mind, it's like you haunt them
And passing through, I think I see you
In the shapes of other women
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we have stained these walls
With our mistakes and flaws
[Chorus]
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
Oh, I won't show my face here anymore
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ah-ah-ah)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ah-ah-ah)
[Bridge]
All that’s left behind is a shadow on my mind (Shadow on my mind)
Oh, a shadow cast upon the wall is silhouette and nothing more (Shadow on my mind)
That is all that's left behind (All that's left behind)
[Chorus]
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
Oh, I won't show my face here anymore
[Outro]
I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
