Just a small town girl, living in a lonely world 
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere 
Just a city boy born and raised in South Detroit 
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere 
A singer in a smokey room 
The smell of wine and cheap perfume 
For a smile they can share the night 
It goes on and on, and on, and on 
Strangers waiting up and down the boulevard 
Their shadows searching in the night 
Streetlight 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 were born to sing the blues 
Oh, the movie never ends it goes on and on, and on, and on 
Strangers waiting 
Up and down the boulevard 
Their shadows searching 
In the night 
Streetlight people 
Livin' just to find emotion 
Hidin' somewhere in the night 
 Instrumental interlude  
Don't stop believin' 
Hold on to that feelin' 
Streetlight people 
Don't stop believin' 
Hold on 
Streetlight people 
Don't stop believin' 
Hold on to that feelin' 
Streetlight people
