Just a small town girl
Living in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile, they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Welcome down the boulevard
(Their shadows searching) in the night
(Streetlights people)
Living just to find emotion
(Hiding somewhere) in the night
Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Paying anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win, and some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waiting
Welcome down the boulevard
(Their shadows searching) in the night
(Streetlights people)
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night, oh
Don't stop believing
Hold on to feeling
Streetlight people
Oh-oh
Don't stop believing
Hold on to feeling
Streetlight people
Oh-oh
Don't stop believing
Hold on to feeling
Street light people
Oh-oh
Don't stop
