On The Street Where You Live (from "My Fair Lady")

On The Street Where You Live - John Michael King

I have often walked

Down the 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

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

And 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

They don't bother me

For there's no where 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

People stop and stare

They don't bother me

For there's no where 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
