Rickie Lee Jones - On The Street Where You Live lyrics

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 appear

You know people stop and stare
They don't bother me
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

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
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
