Frederick Loewe
On the Street Where You Live
[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
And oh, the towering feeling just to know
Somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling that any second
You may suddenly appear

[Verse 3]
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

[Piano Solo]
[Chorus]
And oh, the towering feeling just to know
Somehow you are near
An overpowering feeling that any second
You may suddenly appear

[Verse 4]
People stop and stare, baby they don't bother me
For there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I won't care if I can be here
On the street where you live

[Outro]
Baby, I don't care if I can be on the street where you live
