His heart is out in the street
(Out in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the street
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Still in the street)
He grew up on the sidewalk, streetlights shinin' above
(Yes he did it)
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more
(He's out in the street)
He grew up and then he met me
Know there's somethin' missin' inside, somethin' died
He's gotta be
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He used to act bad, used to but he quit it
(He's out in the street)
And I can see his heart
He don't comb his hair like he did before
(Wish I didn't care)
But he's not the same
He grew up with no one to love
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He grew up on the sidewalk, he grew up runnin' free
They're waitin' out there, so I got to set him free
It makes me so sad 'cause I know that he did it for me
His heart is out in the street
I wish I didn't care I wish I'd never met him
There's something 'bout his kisses it tells me he's changed
(Out in the street)
Gee, he doesn't smile like he did before
