Underneath the Streetlight lyrics

by

Joni Mitchell


[Verse 1]
Yes I do, I love you
I swear on the stars above I do
I swear on the streetlight on the corner
Shoving back the shadows

[Chorus 1]
One shadow cursing, another shadow laughing
Underneath the streetlight
I don't know where they're coming from, I just see 'em passing
Underneath the streetlight

[Verse 2]
Yes I do, I love you
I swear on the buildings above I do
I swear on a billion yellow
And TV blue windows

[Chorus 2]
Gay boys with their pants so tight out in the neon light
Underneath the street light
A m- m- madman-madman kicking over garbage cans
Underneath the streetlight

[Verse 3]
Yes I do--I love you
I swear on the blinkin' planes above I do
I swear on the truck at the stoplighr
With his airbrakes moaning
[Chorus 3]
All night the trucks roll up to the tunnel toll
Underneath the streetlight
They come rollin', rollin', rollin' for a living
Underneath the streetlight

[Verse 4]
Yes I do, I love you
I swear on the disco sparkle dark I do
I swear on the be-bop boys
Chasing the black bird

[Chorus 4]
Rock 'n' roll broadcast movin' up now full blast
Underneath the streetlight
They come dancin', dancin', really rock 'n rollin'
Underneath the streetlight

[Outro]
Yes I do, I love you
I really love you
Yes I do, yes I do
I love you
