[00:27.14]You’ll see me walking in the streets at night
[00:29.48]Just following the sound of my lonely feet
[00:32.22]I’m relinquishing of all control
[00:35.10]My mind’s in tactical retreat
[00:39.34]I doubt you even live here still
[00:41.53]But it quickens up the pace of my heartbeat
[00:44.81]When I find myself by accident
[00:47.80]On 22nd Street
[00:50.49]
[00:51.78]All the years, since bittersweet
[00:57.06]Are chapters in a story book
[01:00.60]That still is incomplete
[01:03.49]The falling leaves will tumble to defeat
[01:09.01]But nothing’s ever changed round here
[01:14.14]On 22nd Street
[01:16.33]Every time I’m at the spot I remember
[01:18.51]22nd was the place I met the girl of my dreams
[01:22.36]A bright sunny day in November
[01:24.80]Such a beautiful sight staring right back at me
[01:28.29]
[01:29.09]To get yuh body was my goal
[01:30.78]But yuh fit perfectly ina di wifey roll
[01:34.61]Yuh have mi unda control
[01:37.50]On 22nd Street weh yuh capture mi heart and soul
[01:40.59]I have a dream that I can’t shake
[01:44.37]A dream where lonely lovers meet
[01:48.01]On the corner of the avenue
[01:50.54]And 22nd Street
[01:52.54]
[01:54.19]The street musicians start to play
[01:56.53]Their violins so sweet
[02:00.26]We can’t help ourselves but dance
[02:02.80]These steps we must complete
[02:06.13]All the years, since bittersweet
[02:12.78]Are chapters in a fairy tale
[02:15.28]That still lies incomplete
[02:19.71]The falling leaves are destined to repeat
[02:24.83]That nothing’s ever changed round here
[02:29.86]On 22nd Street
[02:31.10]
[02:31.40]Well any time I walk the spot I remember
[02:33.75]22nd was the place I met the girl of dreams
[02:36.69]A bright sunny day in November
[02:39.77]Such a beautiful sight staring right back at me
[02:43.75]I couldn’t leave you alone
[02:45.94]Something inside told me I’m gonna make you my own
[02:49.44]I had you locked in my zone
[02:52.68]You are the queen of my life and the heir to my throne
[02:56.79]
[02:57.14]All the years, since bittersweet
[03:02.46]Are chapters in a fairy tale
[03:05.35]That still lies incomplete
[03:08.48]The falling leaves will tumble to defeat
[03:14.51]I find myself alone again
[03:19.73]On 22nd Street
[03:25.81]On 22nd Street
[03:33.62]On 22nd Street
[03:38.71]On 22nd Street
