Street Lamp

You're in a picture on the 'Lian Restaurant' wall
 From my childhood days, but you've stayed inside of me
 All my life
 Like a friend, like an icon, like a window
 I can lean on you when I'm down
 (Chorus:)
 Street lamp, won't you shine your light on me?
 Street lamp, I don't know where I would rather be
 You're the city's own moon and stars
 For the lovers of the sidewalks to see
 Street lamp, shine on me
 You're a beacon, you're a sanctuary for the little lost
 Souls of the street, but you've been a part of me
 All my life
 Like a tramp, like a prostitute or a drunk
 I can lean on you when I'm down
 (Repeat chorus)
 (Soon the night will be over, soon the night will be over)
 I've been lost in your picture all my life
 Like a friend, like a fixture, all my life
 Street lamp
 Street lamp
 You're the city's own moon and stars
 For the lovers of the sidewalks to see
 Street lamp, shine on me
 (Soon the night will be over, soon the night will be over)
 Street lamp, shine on me
 (Soon the night will be over, soon the night will be over)
 Street lamp... (fade)
