In the night
In the big city light
We seal ourselves away and hold on tight
You were there
Yeah, we were all there
We're too young, too smart, too much for this one town
We'd get so loud, we got lost coming down
We're the kids in street
The kids in the street
When we were kids in the street
Just kids in the street
Well, when we
We used to laugh, we used to cry
Live and die by the forty-five
Take me back while we're there
Who could stop us, who would care
Always keep to the kids in the street
We were dreams
We were American graffiti scenes
We're no war, no peace, no hope, no means, just us
And the songs
With the words that we'd sing wrong
Yeah, we'd drive until that jealous sun fell down
Just to watch ourselves in moonlight summer sounds
When we were kids in the street
Kids in the street
When we were kids in the street
Just kids in the street
Well, when we
We used to laugh, we used to cry
Live and die by the forty-five
Take me back while we're there
Who could stop us, who would care
Always keep to the kids in the street
And we never felt so alive
And we'd dance all night under the sky
And we live, we breathe, we die
When the world stood still for you and I
Just
Candles burn
'Cause the world will always turn
Yeah, I'll burn both ends until my fire's out
Lost in the darkness I can still scream out (out)
We used to laugh, we used to cry
Singing bye by the forty-five
Take me back down a dirty road
Where and when we didn't care to know
A glory night is a story saved
Mark the chapter, turn the page
Always keep to the kids in the street
When we were kids in the street
Just kids in the street
