Willie Nelson - On The Street Where You Live lyrics

rate me

I have often walked down this street before<br />

But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before<br />

All at once am I several stories high<br />

Knowing I'm on the street where you live<br />

<br />

Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?<br />

Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?<br />

Does enchantment pour out of every door?<br />

No, it's just on the street where you live<br />

<br />

And oh the towering feeling just to know<br />

Somehow you are near<br />

The overpowering feeling that any second<br />

You may suddenly appear<br />

<br />

People stop and stare they don't bother me<br />

For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be<br />

Let the time go by<br />

I don't care if I can be here on the street where you live<br />

<br />

And oh the towering feeling just to know<br />

Somehow you are near<br />

An overpowering feeling that any second<br />

It may suddenly appear<br />

<br />

People stop and stare baby they don't bother me<br />

For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be<br />

Let the time go by<br />

I won't care if I can be here on the street where you live<br />

Baby, I won't care if I can be on the street where you live<br /><br />
