Foggy night, a winding road, silent sound of afterglow
Where secrets grow and flicker in the fading light
Wandering these streets alone, lost in love, so far from home
But blood and bone, I'm left to know which way is right

In the gaslight district, where up is down and faith is real
In the gaslight district, where bitter hearts are soft as steel
Lonely minds breathe twisted, it doesn't matter what you feel
In the gaslight district

You dimmed the light and gripped my love, swearing under God above
You'd freed the dove and finally knew what to do
Every time you said her name, I shut my eyes and took the blame
I tried in vain, to seek and find the truth in you

In the gaslight district, where what you know is burned away
In the gaslight district, you've mind to go and heart to stay
But the dawn comes glistening, and shadows fade in light of day
In the gaslight district
