On The Streets Tonight

On the streets tonight
Oh yeah, on the streets tonight
On the streets tonight
That's where i'll be found

Cause i don't wanna go home
I wanna hang out with my friends
I wanna hang with you...

Where the city is at peace at 5 AM
As over the rooftops rises the sun
Yeah, we've been here all night long
Lost in endless talk and our love songs

There are nights when these sidewalks feel like home
And the bright street light is a crystal chandelier
Sipping a cup of coffee unti the bakery opens... its doors
Then a fresh baked loaf of bread and it's off to bed, yeah

Where I dream that I am on the streets at night
And I've never felt more perfect or in tune
With the city, with my friends, with the cops on the corner, yeah
Then a stray red dog sits down right next to me
And explains the finer points of fresco painting
He's been studying 6 years
He says that's 42 years expierence for humans

Wake up in the afternoon...
Pick up the phone, i'm dialing you
I'll catch you at 6, for some chinese and some 80's karaoke
And then we'll set up on the sidewalks
Where we sing our songs all night long.
