Lyrics

• 1st verse
• Looking out
• Across the night-time
• The city winks a sleepless eye
• Hear her voice
• Shake my window
• Sweet seducing sighs
• 2nd verse
• Get me out
• Into the night-time
• Four walls wont hold me tonight
• If this town
• Is just an apple
• Then let me take a bite
• Chorus
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• 3rd verse
• Reaching out
• To touch a stranger
• Electric eyes are everywhere
• See that girl
• She knows Im watching
• She likes the way I stare
• Chorus
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• I like livin this way
• I like lovin this way
• ahhhhh ahhhhhh...
• 4th verse
• Looking out
• Across the morning
• The citys heart begins to beat
• Reaching out
• I touch her shoulder
• Im dreaming of the street
• Chorus
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• If they say -
• Why, why, tell em that is human nature
• Why, why, does he do me that way
• I like livin this way
• (repeat chorus and add-lib to fade)
