Once Upon a Street
There once was a writer
He liked to write songs
He had the eyes of a fighter
Never did nobody wrong
He then became a lover
The day he found his heart
In the words of a hooker
Who walked the cold streets after dark
She said
Where d'you think your going with that look upon your face
Nowhere for you
He said
I'm going nowhere, would you like to come too
He said I'm going nowhere would you like to come too
So they made love by a streetlight
While the raindrops washed their sin
And as he trespassed into her life
Well she fell in love with him
While touching her face
Looking for a love
He began to kiss her eyes
But at the taste of a tear drop
He heard the lady say goodbye
So he said
Where d'you think your going with that look upon you face
Nowhere for you
She said I'm going nowhere would you like to come too
Yeah
She said I'm going nowhere
He said I would love to come with you
