        Artist:Journey
        Song:Don't Stop Believin'
        Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
        She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
        Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
        He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
        A singer in a smokey room
        A smell of wine and cheap perfume
        For a smile they can share the night
        It goes on and on and on and on
        (Chorus)
        Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
        Their shadows searching in the night
        Streetlights people, living just to find emotion
        Hiding, somewhere in the night.
        Working hard to get my fill,
        Everybody wants a thrill
        Payin' anything to roll the dice,
        Just one more time
        Some will win, some will lose
        Some were born to sing the blues
        Oh, the movie never ends
        It goes on and on and on and on
        (Chorus)
        Don't stop believin'
        Hold on to the feelin'
        Streetlights people
        Don't stop believin'
        Hold on
        Streetlight people
        Don't stop believin'
        Hold on to the feelin'
        Streetlights people
