Looking out, across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice, shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out, into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight

If this town is just an apple

Then let me take a bite



If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way

If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way



Reaching out to touch a stranger

Electric eyes are everywhere

See that girl, she knows I'm watching

She likes the way I stare



If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way

If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way



Looking out, across the morning

The city's heart begins to beat

Reaching out, I touch her shoulder

I'm dreaming of the street



If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why does he do me that way

If they say why, why

Tell them that it's human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way
