I have often walked

Round these streets before


But the pavment always moved

Beneath my feet before

All at once am I multi-storey high

Knowing I'm on the streets where you live



Resident may stare, they don't bother me a bit

Because there's nowhere in the world that I would rather sit

Let their time row by, I don't care now I

Know I'm here on the street where she lives



And...oh, oh, oh,

What a nauseous feeling

Just to know, oh, oh,

For once she's near

And oh, oh, oh,

What a tower-block feeling

Any second she may suddenly appear



Are there lilac trees

In the heart of town?

Can you hear the light

In any other part of town?

Does enchantment pour

Out of every door?

No, it's just here on the street where she lives



And...oh, oh, oh,

What a nauseous feeling

Just to know, oh, oh,

For once she's near

And oh, oh, oh,

What a tower-block feeling

Any second she may suddenly appear



Are there lilac trees

In the heart of town?

Can you hear the light

In any other part of town?

Does enchantment pour

Out of every door?

No, it's just here on the street where she lives



Are there lilac trees

In the heart of town?

Can you hear the light

In any other part of town?

Does enchantment pour

Out of every door?

No, it's just on the street where she lives
