Allelujah

The lights on the west way go on

A million cars hurry home

An ice cream van shuts off its tinsel bells

Winter won't be long

I see you every day

I watch as you walk down this way

We pass on the stairs of this council block

Too shy to find words to say

But your smile is a prayer that prays for love

And your heart is a kite that longs to fly

Allelujah, here I am

Let's cut the strings tonight

So meet me on the corner at eight

Let's get out of this place

We'll kiss the first of a million kisses

And let the past fall away

For your smile is a prayer that prays for love

And your heart is a kite that longs to fly

Allelujah, here I am

Let's cut the strings tonight

Yes, your smile is a prayer that prays for love

And your heart is a kite that longs to fly

Allelujah, here I am

Let's cut the strings tonight

Yes, your smile is a prayer that prays for love

And your heart is a kite that longs to fly

Allelujah, here I am

We'll cut the strings tonight

And we'll kiss the first of a million kisses

La-la-la-la-la-la
