Shirley Horn On The Street Where You Live
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
And oh, the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear
[Verse 3]
People stop and stare, they don't bother me
For there's 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
Here on the street where you live
Here on the street where you live
