On The Street Where You Live - André Previn (安德鲁·普列文)/Bill Shirley

When she mentioned how her aunt

Bit off the spoon

She completely done me in

And my heart went on a journey to the moon

When she told about her father and the gin

And I never saw a more enchanting farce

Than the moment when she shouted

Move your bloomin'

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

The overpowering feeling

That any second you may suddenly appear

People stop and stare

They don't bother me

For there's nowhere else on earth

That I would rather be

Let the time go by

I won't care

If I can be here on the street

Where you live
