| i have often walked | |
| down this street before | |
| but the pavement always stayed | |
| beneath my feet before | |
| all at once am i | |
| several stories high | |
| knowing i'm | |
| on the street | |
| where you live | |
| are there lilac trees | |
| in the heart of town | |
| can you hear a lark | |
| in any other part of town | |
| does enchantment pour | |
| out of every door | |
| no it's just on the street | |
| where you live | |
| and oh the tow'ring feeling | |
| just to know | |
| somehow you are near | |
| the overpow'ring feeling | |
| that any second | |
| you may suddenly appear | |
| you know | |
| people stop and stare | |
| they don't bother me | |
| for there's nowhere else on earth | |
| that i would rather be | |
| let the time go by | |
| i don't care if i | |
| can be here | |
| on the street | |
| where you live | |
| and oh the tow'ring feeling | |
| just to know | |
| somehow you are near | |
| the overpow'ring feeling | |
| that any second | |
| you may suddenly appear | |
| you know | |
| people stop and stare | |
| they don't bother me | |
| for there's nowhere else on earth | |
| that i would rather be | |
| let the time go by | |
| i don't care if i | |
| can be here | |
| on the street | |
| where you live | |
| can be here | |
| on the street | |
| where you live |
