On Dark Street
 
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Taupin


I'm staring down a mile of disappearing track
Is this the best that we could do?
I'm leaning through the rain but you ain't looking back
What did I ever have to prove?

'Cause it feels like electricity hitting an open field
When am I ever gonna learn?
Married life's two people trying to grab the wheel

  Chorus
Oh and we must have got lost
Livin' on Dark street
Lookin' for an exit
Sleepin' on the concrete
You can't see it with your eyes
You can't find it with your feet
All I know is that we're lost baby
And we're livin' on Dark street

All the layoffs and the pay cuts cripple me inside
I pay the price for living everyday
Trying to keep us all together along with a little pride
What'll it take to make you stay

But I dreamed about an island all I got is a bucket of sand
I'd give my eyes to give you all your dreams
Now I get to see my family slipping through my hands

  Chorus

You can't see it with your eyes
You can't find it with your feet
All I know is that we're lost baby
And we're livin' on Dark street

All I know is that we're lost baby
And we're livin' on Dark street
All I know is that we're lost baby
And we're livin' on Dark street
All I know is that we're lost baby
And we're livin' on Dark street
