On The Street Where You Live Words by Alan Lerner Music by Frederick Loewe Appears on Live with The Trio
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
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 And oh! The powering 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 I'd rather be Let the time go by I won't care if I Can be here on the street where you live
