Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smoky room
A 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

Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people

Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill

Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time
Some will win, 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
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night

Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
