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 won't 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, just 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 ev'rywhere

See that girl

She knows I'm 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, just tell 'em that is human nature

Why, why, does he do me that way

I like livin' this way

I like lovin' this way



4th verse

Looking out

Across the morning

The city's heart begins to beat

Reaching out

I touch her shoulder

I'm 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



(repeat chorus)
