Intro : (x2)
Looking out , across t he night-time;
The city winks a sleeples s ey e.
Hear her voice , shake my window;
Sweet se -ducin g sigh s.
Get me out , into t he night-time;
Four walls won't hold me, t o-nig ht.
If this town , is just an apple;
Then let me take a bite. (If they say);
Why' why' Tell them that it s hum an nature.
Why' why'Does he do me that way' (If they say);
Why' why' Tell them that it s hum an nature.
Why' why'Does he do me that way'
Reachin g out , to touch a stranger;
Electric eyes are ever y-wher e.
See that girl; sh e knows I 'm watching,
She likes the way I stare. (If they say) :
Why' why' Tell them that it s hum an nature.
Why' why'Does he do me that way' (If they say);
Why' why' Tell them that it s hum an nature.
Why' why'Does he do me that way'
I like livin'this way,
I like livin'this way.
