Ludlow Street Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Soupwizard 

Cover art for Ludlow Street lyrics by Suzanne Vega

It's about the death of her brother, Tim (his name is whispered before the last chorus). When she goes back to Ludlow Street (where her brother lived) it reminds her of their childhood together and how she's never going to get those moments back. A sad song, a beautiful song, and probably one of my favorite songs ever.
