Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere A singer in a smoky room The smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile you can share the night It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waiting up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Working hard to get my fill 'Cause everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time Well, some will win, some will lose And some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waiting up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people
