Underneath The Streetlight Lyrics - Wild Things Run Fast - Joni Mitchell

Yes i do--i love you! 

i swear on the stars above i do! 

i swear on the streetlight on the corner 

shoving back the shadows! 

one shadow cursing 

another shadow laughing 

underneath the streetlight 

i don't know where they're coming from 

i just see 'em passing 

underneath the streetlight . . . 

Yes i do--i love you! 

i swear on the buildings above i do! 

i swear on a billion yellow and t.v. blue windows! 

gayboys with their pants so tight 

out in the neon light 

underneath the street light 

a m- m- madman-madman 

kicking over garbage cans 

underneath the streetlight . . . 

Yes i do--i love you! 

i swear on the blinkin' planes above i do! 

i swear on the truck at the stoplight 

with his airbrakes moaning! 

all night the trucks roll 

up to the tunnel-toll 

underneath the streetlight 

they come rollin', rollin' 

rollin' for a living 

underneath the streetlight . . . 

Yes i do--i love you! 

i swear on the disco sparkle dark i do! 

i swear on the be-bop boys 

chasing the black bird 

rock 'n' roll broadcast 

movin' up now full blast 

underneath the streetlight 

they come dancin', dancin' 

really rock 'n rollin' 

underneath the streetlight 

yes i do--i love you 

i really love you 

yes i do--yes i do 

i love you!
