Human Nature

Looking out

Across the nighttime

The city winks a sleepless eye

Hear her voice

Shake my window

Sweet seducing sighs

Get me out

Into the nighttime

Four walls won't hold me tonight

If this town

Is just an apple

Then let me take a bite

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way

Reaching out

To touch a stranger

Electric eyes are ev'rywhere

See that girl

She knows I'm watching

She likes the way I stare

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way

I like lovin' this way

I like lovin' this way

Looking out

Across the morning

Where the city's heart begins to beat

Reaching out

I touch her shoulder

I'm dreaming of the street

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way

If they say --

Why why tell 'em that it's human nature

Why why does he do me that way
