Just a small town girlLivin' in a lonely worldShe took the midnight train going anywhereJust a city boyBorn and raised in South DetroitHe took the midnight train going anywhere
A singer in a smokey roomA smell of wine and cheap perfumeFor a smile they can share the nightIt goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'Up and down the boulevardTheir shadows searchin' in the nightStreetlights, peopleLivin' just to find emotionHidin', somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fillEverybody wants a thrillPayin' anything to roll the diceJust one more time
Some'll win, some will loseSome are born to sing the bluesWhoa, the movie never endsIt goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'Up and down the boulevardTheir shadows searchin' in the nightStreetlights, peopleLivin' just to find emotionHidin', somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'Hold on to that feelin'Streetlights, peopleDon't stop believin'Hold onStreetlights, peopleDon't stop believin'Hold on to that feelin'Streetlights, people
