Towards the end of David Grays excellent cover of this song he adds to the original lyrics something that sounds like "It's stormy to my soul, it's stormy just like going home"  Does anyone know what the actual lyrics are please and the original artist (if there is one?!)  I have been searching lyric sites, but can't find it anywhere.

Would really appreciate any help

MissEdith, it's originally a Bruce Springsteen song that was featured in the Tom Hanks/Denzel Washington film, "Philidelphia," about AIDS.

I was bruised and battered and I couldnt tell
What I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window I didnt know
My own face
Oh brother are you gonna leave me
Wastin´away
On the streets of philadelphia

I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
Black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of philadelphia

Aint no angel gonna greet me
Its just you and I my friend
My clothes dont fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip the skin

The night has fallen, Im lyinawake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of philadelphia

Hi Miss Edith,

what David is singing are the lines 'It stoned me to my soul, it stoned me just like going home' taken from the Van Morrison song 'It Stoned Me'. 

You can find a full cover version of this song right here:

And thanks for those lyrics Heckenland.
