There's a girl down the street
Works at the Five-and-a-dime
Just lives her life ain't sugarsweet
But she is doing allright

Friday night she goes out
Just for dancing the night away
When she moves with the crowd
Makes her heart beat, and that's okay

But deep down inside those eyes
A fire is aching each night
She's dreaming the dream of breaking free
Can't get enough
She's longing for love

Out on the street no one can see
What she's been hiding so long
Ain't giving up she's hanging in
One day she'll coming on strong

Friday night she goes out
Just for dancing the night away
Just to move with the groove
Makes her heart beat, and that's okay

'Cos way deep inside those eyes
A fire is aching each night
She's dreaming the dream of breaking free
Can't get enough
She's rising up high, so high
It's bound to come true, one night
Just look in her eyes
She's longing for love

She's longing for love love

[Solo]

'Cos deep down inside those eyes
A fire is aching each night
She's dreaming the dream of breaking free
Can't get enough
She's rising up high, so high
It's bound to come true, one night
Just look in her eyes
She's longing for love
She's longing for love

She's longing for love downtown girl
Love downtown girl
She's longing for love downtown girl
Love downtown girl
She's longing for love downtown girl
Oh love downtown girl
