Love In The Streets Lyrics - Singles - Picture House

(Browne/Maitland) 

Opens the show, the devil you know 

You're better off staying at home 

High on the grass and the lebanese 

Lying at home, what do you know 

You're better off hanging up the phone 

There's nobody there but the sound of the breeze 

And you can't deny there's a world outside 

With an earth and a moon and a sun in the sky 

You might die trying but you might find 

Love in the streets 

There's got to be love in the streets 

There's got to be love there for me 

I'm tired of believing a broken dream 

Ah yeah 

There's got to be love in the air 

Before someone kicks out my chair 

I'm through with believing there's no-one there 

It would make me feel alright 

If you would take me out tonight 

'Cause I'd just love to spend the summer in the streets 

Faces that say you're well on your way 

You've only got to get through today 

Something's no good if it's in your way 

And lying at home is the devil you know 

You're better off hanging up the phone 

There's nobody there but the sound of the breeze 

(bridge and chorus)
