Lyrics

I thought I was looking at a familiar face
But you were missing in a dark and distant place
White sand kept falling through the hour glass
Then came a sweet voice, an echo from the past

Under the streetlights, I wait for you
Under the streetlights, I wait for you
Under the spotlight, the stage is blue
Under the streetlights, I wait for you

The sidewalk is empty, the houses dark inside
Newspaper headlines search for the truth and the lies
Stairways are silent, no one is walking the roads
Stars in the heavens flash a mysterious code

Under the streetlights, I still wait for you
Under the streetlights, I wait for you
Under the spotlight, the stage is blue
Under the streetlights, I wait for you

Silently staring at the shadow box
Decades now unsealed, now the doors are unlocked

Under the streetlights, I waited for you
Under the streetlights, I waited for you
Under the spotlight, the stage was blue
Under the streetlights, I waited so long for you
