Lyrics:
see it in your eyes
Walking down a crowded avenue
Other faces seem like nothing next to you
And I can't hear the traffic rushing by
Just
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Sweethearts out for fun
Pass me one by one
Guess I'll wind up like
This isn't your song, this isn't your music
How can there be wrong, when by committee
They choose it all, they choose it all
You're gonna grow
Are we packed?
Yes, and by next week I want you to be
Pookie?
And you should see
They've padlocked your building
And they're rioting
got my health, so what do I care?
By fashion and foppery, I'm never discussed.
Attending the opry, my box would be a bust.
I never shall have that
a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
There were people on the sidewalks
Strolling down the avenues
They were sitting outside in cafes
We were looking for the muse
Well I was locked
saw you on the avenue
You looked so tired and a little blue
You were in your Sunday best
With your father's tie upon your chest
[Chorus:]
Hey,
On disillusion avenue
And I've been here longer than I care to tell
The twinkling bells of hope and joy
The laughter that rang in my voice
Have silenced more
go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am
when you're passing by
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
You're my honeysuckle rose
I don't buy sugar
You just have
a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some
Northern son
We're walking down that same avenue
Throw me a lifeline, won't you please
I'm watching the news, but I'm not at ease
Throw me
Shades of night are falling and I'm lonely
Standing on the corner feeling blue
Sweethearts out for fun
Pass me one by one
Guess I'll wind up like
of Utica Avenue
They just can't keep cool
So much gun shot some
cripple some turn fool
They are responsible for a lot
of children
And they need
a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
way
I’m making my way
To jump into something new
Down the Avenue
Down the Avenue (oh)
I can’t take
One more step
Without you
By my side
I’m out
see it in your eyes
Walking down a crowded avenue
Other faces seem like nothing next to you
And I can't hear the traffic rushing by
Just
stand a little closer, girl
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle
That's my window on the world
Down on Indiana Avenue
Wes and Jimmy, man they
know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
(Sha bop sha bop)
You are here
(Sha bop sha bop)
And so am I
(Sha bop sha bop)
Maybe millions
together
There ain't a place I'd like to be instead of
Groovin', down a crowded avenue
Doin' anything we like to do
There's always lots of things
all night on lake avenue
It's a piece of cake
If you know what to do
You've got to lose a few
'Til the stakes get high
When the odds are right
You
You thought I was rich
And I am but not how you think
I live in a Tudor house
Under the freeway in Mar Vista by the beach
When you call I take my
a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
