Nat King Cole - On The Street Where You Live lyrics

(alan lerner, frederick loewe)<br><br>I have often walked<br>Down the street before,<br>But the pavement always<br>Stayed beneath my feet before.<br>All at once am i<br>Several stories high,<br>Knowing I'm on the street where you live.<br><br>Are there lilac trees<br>In the heart of town? <br>Can you hear a lark in any other part of town? <br>Does enchantment pour<br>Out of every door? <br>No, it's just on the street where you live.<br><br>And oh, the towering feeling<br>Just to know somehow you are near<br>The overpowering feeling<br>That any second you may suddenly appear.<br><br>People stop and stare<br>They don't bother me,<br>For there's no where else on earth<br>That I would rather be.<br><br>Let the time go by,<br>I won't care if i<br>Can be here on the street where you live.<br><br>~interlude~<br><br>People stop and stare<br>They don't bother me,<br>For there's no where else on earth<br>That I would rather be.<br><br>Let the time go by<br>I won't care if i<br>Can be here on the street where you live,<br><br>Let me be on the street where you live.
