Just a small town girl
Livin’ in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin’
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin’ in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin’ just to find emotion
Hidin’, somewhere in the night
Workin’ hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin’ anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some’ll win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
Whoa, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin’
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin’ in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin’ just to find emotion
Hidin’, somewhere in the night
Don’t stop believin’
Hold on to that feelin’
Streetlights, people
Don’t stop believin’
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don’t stop believin’
Hold on to that feelin’
Streetlights, people
Babe, tomorrow’s so far away
There’s something I just have to say
I don’t think I could hide what I’m feelin’ inside
Another day, knowin’ I love you
And I, I’m getting too close again
I don’t wanna see it end
If I tell you tonight, would you turn out the lights
And walk away knowin’ I love you?
I’m gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize, Amanda
I’m gonna tell you right away
I can’t wait another day, Amanda
I’m gonna say it like a man
And make you understand, Amanda
I love you
And I feel like today’s the day
I’m looking for the words to say
Do you wanna be free, are you ready for me
To feel this way?
I don’t wanna lose ya
So, it may be too soon, I know
The feeling takes so long to grow
If I tell you today, will you turn me away
And let me go?
I don’t wanna lose you
I’m gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize, Amanda
I’m gonna tell you right away
I can’t wait another day, Amanda
I’m gonna say it like a man
And make you understand, Amanda
Oh, girl
You and I
I know that we can’t wait
And I swear, I swear it’s not a lie, girl
Tomorrow may be too late
You, you and I, girl
We can share a life together
It’s now or never
And tomorrow may be too late
Oh-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
And feelin’ the way I do
I don’t wanna wait my whole life through
To say I’m in love with you
Mama says, “Truth is all that matters
Lying and deceiving is a sin”
Drifting through a world that’s torn and tattered
Every thought I have don’t mean a thing
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
No more music
Don’t stop the dance
Mama says, “Love is all the matters
Beauty should be deeper than your skin”
Living for the moment, lips and lashes
Will I ever find my way again?
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
No more music
Don’t stop the dance
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
Mama says, “Only stormy weather
Don’t know why there’s no sun in the sky”
Footsteps in the dark come together
Got to keep on moving or I will die
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
No more music
Don’t stop the dance
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
No more music
Don’t stop the dance
Don’t stop, don’t stop the dance
Some expression in your eyes
Overtook me by surprise
Where was I how was I to know’
How can we drive to a movie show
When the music is here in my car
There’s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing Oh Yeah on the radio
And so came to be our song
And so on through all summer long
Day and night drifting into love
Driving you home from a movie show
So in tune to the sounds in my car
There’s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing Oh Yeah on the radio
It’s some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our separate lives
But where am I where can I go’
Driving alone to a movie show
So I turn to the sounds in my car
There’s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
There’s a band playing on the radio
And it’s drowning the sound of my tears
They’re playing Oh Yeah on the radio
I was dreaming of the past,
And my heart was beating fast.
I began to lose control,
I began to lose control.
I didn’t mean to hurt you.
I’m sorry that I made you cry.
Oh no, I didn’t mean to hurt you.
I’m just a jealous guy.
I was feeling insecure you might not love me anymore.
I was shivering inside,
I was shivering inside.
I didn’t mean…
I was trying to catch your eyes,
though that you was trying to hide.
I was swallowing my pain,
I was swallowing my pain.
I didn’t mean…
