Streetlife Dreams

(album: Shadows Of War / Lightning Strikes - 1986)

You think it's just a joke
Maybe one big laugh
Anyway that we make it work
It ain't going to last
Don't love like a common man
You're just a five-time fool
Play it loose, I can understand
Why they call you cruel

Street life dream, nighttime passion
Downtown queen, steamy action
Her crazy leather life, just chrome and glass
She fits into the steel, forget the past

You know you make me want to scream
Want to squeeze you tight
Like a figure in a distant dream
You fade into the night
Laser light cuts across the room
Plays a hot guitar
Point to the midnight moon
It's still too far

Street life dream, nighttime passion
Downtown queen, easy fashion
Her crazy leather life of chrome and glass
Just look at what is love, forget the past

Street life dream, nighttime passion
Downtown queen, in some fashion
Her crazy leather life of chrome and glass
She fits into the steel, forget the past
