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 towering feeling
just to know, somehow you are near
the overpowering feeling
that at any second
you may suddenly appear?
People stop and stare
they don't bother me
for there's no where 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.
