“Human Nature” Lyrics
Looking out
Across the night-time
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out
Into the night-time
Four walls won’t hold me tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
Reaching out
To touch a stranger
Electric eyes are ev’rywhere
See that girl
She knows I’m watching
She likes the way I stare
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
I like lovin’ this way
I like lovin’ this way (instrumental section)
Looking out
Across the morning
Where the city’s heart begins to beat
Reaching out
I touch her shoulder
I’m dreaming of the street
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -
Why, why, tell ‘em that it’s human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
I like lovin’ this way
I like lovin’ this way
