One night in my teens some two decades ago I anonyed all of my friends by listening to this song over 20 times in a row. It is still the closest and dearest to my introvert heart piece of lyrics ever written. Self doubt, contained over the years, self loathing to still be contained, and recognitiont that I will stay what I am slowly settling in...

I had this taped off TV as a teenager when it was shown. Absolutely friking LOVED it. Got lost somewhere over the years and never thought I'd see this again. Still absolutely friking love it. THANK YOU :)

“There's a moon over bourbon street tonight I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight I've no choice but to follow that call The bright lights the people and the moon and all I pray everyday to be strong For I know what I do must be wrong Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street It was many years ago that I became what I am I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb Now I can never show my face at noon And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans She's innocent and young from a family of means I have stood many times outside her window at night To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight How could I be this way when I pray to god above I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet While there's a moon over bourbon street”

I think it's the Tyne foot tunnel - connects Wallsend, where Sting is from with Jarrow on the south bank of the Tyne. It was to get workers from Jarrow over to the shipyards without them having a 20 mile round trip to the bridges at Gateshead and Newcastle.
