Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train going anywhere
Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train going anywhere
A singer in a smokey room A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on
* Strangers waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin', somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose Some are born to sing the blues
Whoa, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on
( * )
Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlights, people Don't stop believin'
