on the streets tonight, o yeah on the streets tonight 
on the streets tonight, that`s where i`ll be found 
`cause i don`t wanna go home 
i want to hang out with my friends, i want to 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 & 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 until 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 six years ,
he says, "that`s 42 years experience for humans!" 
wake up in the afternoon 
pick up the phone, i`m dialing you 
i`ll catch you at six for some chinese and some 80`s karaoke 
and then we`ll set up on sidewalks 
where we`ll sing our songs 
all night long....
