| In the night, in the beat city light
|
| We steal ourselves away and hold on tight
|
| You were there, yeah, we were all there
|
| Too young, too smart, too much for this one town
|
| We’d get so high, we got lost coming down
|
| When we were kids in the street, kids in the street
|
| When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street
|
| Remember when we We used to laugh, we used to cry
|
| Live and die by the forty-five
|
| Take me back, I’ll go there
|
| Who could stop us, and who would care?
|
| Always keep, to the kids in the street
|
| We were dreams, we were American graffiti scenes
|
| But no war, no peace, no hopes, no dreams, just us And the songs, with the words we’d sing wrong
|
| And we’d drive until that jealous sun fell down
|
| Just to wash ourselves in the moonlight summer sounds
|
| When we were kids in the street, kids in the street
|
| When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street
|
| Remember when we We used to laugh, we used to cry
|
| Live and die by the forty-five
|
| Take me back, I’ll go there
|
| Who could stop us, and who would care?
|
| Always keep, to the kids in the street
|
| (Huh, huh, huh) and we never felt, so alive (so alive)
|
| (Huh, huh, huh) and we’d dance, all, night, under the sky (under the sky)
|
| (Whoa, whoa, whoa) and we’d live (we'd live), we’d breathe (we'd breathe),
|
| We’d die (we'd die)
|
| (Whoa, whoa, whoa) when the world, stood, still, for you and I Just (you and I)
|
| Candles burn, 'cause the world will always turn
|
| I’ll burn both ends until my fire’s out
|
| Lost in the darkness, I can still scream out (aaah)
|
| We used to laugh, we used to cry
|
| Say goodbye to I-35
|
| Take me back, down a dirty road
|
| Where it went, we didn’t care to know
|
| A glory night is a story saved
|
| Mark the chapter, but turn the page
|
| Always keep, to kids in the street
|
| When we were kids in the street
|
| Just kids in the street
|
| (Whoa)
|
| (Whoa-ooh) |
