Once Upon a Street lyrics

There once was a writer

He liked to write songs

He had the eyes of a fighter

Never did nobody wrong

He then became a lover

The day he found his heart

In the words of a hooker

Who walked the cold streets after dark

She said

Where d'you think your going with that look upon your face

Nowhere for you

He said

I'm going nowhere, would you like to come too

He said I'm going nowhere would you like to come too

So they made love by a streetlight

While the raindrops washed their sin

And as he trespassed into her life

Well she fell in love with him

While touching her face

Looking for a love

He began to kiss her eyes

But at the taste of a tear drop

He heard the lady say goodbye

So he said

Where d'you think your going with that look upon you face

Nowhere for you

She said I'm going nowhere would you like to come too

Yeah

She said I'm going nowhere

He said I would love to come with you
