My Fair Lady, Act I: "On the Street Where You Live" (Freddy Eynsford-Hill) Lyrics

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 another 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

(Interlude)

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
