Looking out Across the night-time The city winks a sleepless eye Hear her voice Shake my window Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out Into the night-time Four walls won’t hold me tonight If this town Is just an apple Then let me take a bite
If they say, “Why? Why?” Tell ’em that is human nature Why, why does he do it that way? If they say, “Why? Why?” Tell ’em that is human nature Why, why does he do it that way?
Reaching out To touch a stranger Electric eyes are everywhere See that girl She knows I’m watching She likes the way I stare
If they say, “Why? Why?” Just tell ’em that is human nature Why, why does he do it that way? If they say, “Why? Why?” (Do you really like me to be around?) Tell ’em that is human nature Why, why does he do it that way? I like livin’ this way I like lovin’ this way
That way (The way it was.) That way (The way it was.)
Looking out Across the morning The city’s heart begins to beat Reaching out I touch her shoulder I’m dreaming of the street
If they say, “Why? Why?” Tell ’em that is human nature Why, why does he do it that way? If they say, “Why? Why?” (Just tell me you like me to be around.) Ooh, tell ’em Why, why does he do it that way?
If they say, “Why? Why?”
Why, why does he do it that way? If they say, “Why? Why?” (Just tell me you like me to be around.) Ooh, tell ’em Why, why does he do it that way?
And they say, “Why? Why?” Ooh, tell ’em Why, why does he do it that way?
They say, “Why? Why?” (Just tell me you like me to be around.) Why, why does he do it that way? I like livin’ this way
