"On The Street Where You Live" lyrics

"On The Street Where You Live"
(originally by John Michael King)

I have often walked down the street before
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
Now all at once am I several stories high
Knowing I'm on the street where you live

And 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

Oh (Oh), the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear

People stop and stare, but they don't bother me
For there is nowhere 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

Oh (Oh), the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear

People stop and stare, but they don't bother me
For there is nowhere 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

Can be here on the street, on the street
Can be here on the street, on the street
Can be here on the street where you live
