Wild In The Streets - Letras de Survivor 2

Chevy Nights
(Jim Peterik)

When trouble’s on my mind, I like to reminisce
It was a simpler time, on just a night like this
We were so new to love, we’d educate a guess
I taught you all I knew, and you filled in the rest

And I said oooh
Those were heavy nights
We were revvin' up, those Chevy nights with you
And I said ooh, near the levy site
It was me and you and Chevy nights
Those heavy nights with you

September nights were cool, but though the streets were hot
Perhaps the memories, add mystery to the plot
But deep within my soul, I’m glad the times have changed
As long as rock and roll, and the Chevys stay the same

And I said oooh
Those were heavy nights
We were revvin' up, those Chevy nights, it’s true
And I said oooh, near the levy site
It was me and you and Chevy nights
Those heavy nights with you

And I said oooh
Those were heavy nights
We were revvin' up, those Chevy nights, it’s true
And I said oooh, near the levy site
It was me and you and Chevy nights
And I said oooh
Those were heavy nights
We were revvin' up, those Chevy nights, it’s true
And I said oooh, near the levy site
It was me and you and Chevy nights
And I said oooh
Those were heavy nights
We were revvin' up, those Chevy nights, it’s true
And I said oooh, near the levy site
It was me and you and Chevy nights

Summer Nights
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

Girl it always seems about September
That’s the time, again I remember the lights
And all the fun of those summer nights
Young and innocent and livin’ fast
Didn’t know enough to know
That a summer love can’t last
Can’t last

Then the snow, it fell without a warning
Left me standin' out in the cold
My heart shattered, thinking only of yesterday
Does me no good to reminisce
I can really only tell you this
If I had my way, I'd take yesterday

Do you remember those
Summer nights all night
Dancin’ in the light of love (dancin’ in the light of love)
Summer nights so right
Couldn’t last beyond September
Summer nights all night
Livin’ for your love
Dreamin' only of
You and summer nights

I remember playin’ by the shoreline
Before the fall when we had it all at our fingertips
Buildin’ castles in the driftin’ sand
Raced the waves as they ran to the shore
But the tides were turned for ever more
And the things we planned
Were castles made of sand

Oooh, summer nights
Makin' love beneath the northern lights
Oooh, summer nights
Now I'm back on my own again
Oooh, summer nights
We were diamonds in the rough in the moonlight
Oooh summer nights
Now I’m out in the cold again
Back on my own again

I remember those
Summer nights all night
Dancin’ in the light of love (dancin' in the light of love)
Summer nights so right
Couldn’t last beyond September
Summer nights all night
Dancin’ in the light of love
Summer nights so right
Couldn’t last beyond September
Summer nights all night
Dancin’ in the light of love (dancin' in the light of love)
Summer nights so right
Couldn’t last beyond September

Summer Nights
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

Oooh summer nights
We were diamonds in the rough in the moonlight
Oooh summer nights
Now I’m out in the cold again
Back on my own again

Poor Man's Son
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

Baby if you really love me
You had better understand
That the silver in your pocket
Ain’t no measure of a man

And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you’re born into a breed
You’re signed in blood

I’m a poor man's son, workin’ all night long
Got a bad guitar and a simple song
You’re a rich man's daughter, look at what you’ve done
You went and fell in love with a poor man's son

Baby you were born in splendor
To a house of wealth and fame
Your mother was a spender
And you grew up on a stage

And girl you could've loved for money
Could've fooled around for fame
But you went and took a chance
On the real thing

And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you’re born into a breed
You’re signed in blood

I’m a poor man's son, workin’ all night long
Got a bad guitar and a simple song
You’re a rich man's daughter
You're a rich man's daughter
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
A poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son, workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son

Heart's A Lonely Hunter
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

There's a fog upon the skyline
Clouds my view
And the city's cold and lonely
Without you

And so I set out upon the highway
Bound to leave your memory behind
And the prairie wind, it chills me to my bone
And the heart's a lonely hunter all alone

And the fields are rollin’ softly
Across the plain
And my eyes can see forever
Through the pourin’ rain

I could have sworn I heard your sweet voice callin’
'Bout a mile past the county line
It was only just an echo in my soul
And the heart's a lonely hunter all alone

Drivin’ past the state line
Change my state of mind
Suddenly a free born man
Headin’ through a small town
Turn my life around
No one has to understand
Without a past
To tie me to my shadow
And to the last, I'll run my life alone, alone

Now the sun is beatin’ softly
On my skin
And at last I feel emotion
Beating deep within

And for the first time I know for certain
I can leave that girl behind
And I cast a giant shadow as I roam
And the hearts a lonely hunter
Hearts a lonely hunter
The hearts a lonely hunter all alone, all alone
When you're all alone
You're all alone
When you're all alone

Light Of A Thousand Smiles
(Jim Peterik)

When I would concentrate with all my might
I could imagine, I would imagine
That I was standing in the spotlight

And if I close my eyes very tight
A crystal vision, a premonition
Would find me shining underneath those hot lights

And I’d daydream in school
With faraway eyes
Living the words of the radio songs
Making my plans
Someday to take the stage
With a rock and roll band

And I would play in the light of a thousand smiles
And the sound would be heard for a thousand miles
Spreading through the towns and fields of America, America

And I would demonstrate every night
My plan of action, the crowd reaction
I’d have 'em standing in the front row

With my air guitar, and only my imagination
We’d rock the nation. the main attraction
In the rock and roll show

And I’d daydream in school
With faraway eyes
Living the words of the radio songs
Making my plans
Someday to take the stage
With a rock and roll band

And I would play in the light of a thousand smiles
(And the sound would be heard for a thousand miles)
Spreading through the towns and fields of America, America

As time goes by, some grew weary
It’s hard to keep that dream alive, oh alive
But love and music, keeps me goin’
I know that somehow I’ll survive, ooh I’ll survive

And I’d daydream in school
With faraway eyes
Living the words of the radio songs
Making my plans
I'm gonna take the stage
With a rock and roll band

And I will play in the light of a thousand smiles
Spreading through the towns
Spreading through the fields
And takin' to the streets of America
Spreading through the towns
Spreading through the fields
Taking to the streets of America
Spreading through the towns
Spreading through the fields
Taking to the streets of America
Spreading through the towns
Spreading through the fields
Taking to the streets of America

Take You On A Saturday
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

You were hitchin’ a ride
When I took you inside
You were tremblin’
Out in the rain
Just a face with no name
In the cold

And you cling to my side
Like a desperate child
As the thunder crashed high above
Well now the storm is behind us
It’s time for some love

Gonna take you on a Saturday
Lovin’ you till Monday mornin’
Take you on a Saturday
I’ve been waitin’, waitin’, waitin’, yeah

Now I don’t know your past
And I don’t know your last situation
All I know is the way that you feel
In my arms, ooh my arms

And your fire is so sweet
And I’m feelin' your heat
And this heart’s got no time to lose
So hold on tight babe
I’m makin' my move

Gonna take you on a Saturday
Lovin’ you till Monday mornin’
Take you on a Saturday
I’ve been waitin’, waitin’, waitin’, oooh girl

And my love will flow like a river
And in gentle waves
We’ll come and go like the sea
And the feelin’ is makin’ me shiver, ooh yeah
A weekend of love
Then it’s back to the world, oh yeah

Oh yeah
Take you on a Saturday
Lovin’ you till Monday mornin’
Take you on a Saturday
I’ve been waitin’, waitin’, waitin’, ooh yeah
Lovin’ you till Monday mornin’
Take you on a Saturday
I’ve been waitin’, waitin’, waitin’

Runway Lights
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

Fly above the hills and valleys
High above the streets and alleys
On a home bound flight I carry
Love enough for one

My emotions overflowing
Anticipation growing
Every moment still not knowin'
Seems to weigh a ton

And those scenarios
They spin in my mind
They drift like the clouds
They sail through the night

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer you’ll still be there
And as my plane is touching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away to long

I see your face in midnight driftings
By my side I hear your heartbeat
Closer still I hold your memory
Precious in my mind

In the life that I’ve been chasing
So much times been wastin'
I know I could be tastin'
The love I left behind

And those scenarios
They spin in my mind
They drift like the clouds
They sail through the night

And those scenarios
They spin in my mind

And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
I say a silent prayer you’ll still be there
I wonder as I'm watching down
Will I still belong in the arms that held my life
Or have I stayed away to long
And when I see those runway lights
In the town that I was born
Oh will you still be there
I wonder as I'm watching down
Will I still belong
Or have I stayed away too long

Oh will you still be there
I wonder as I'm watching down
Will I still belong
Or have I stayed away too long

Love Is On My Side
(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)

So strange when lovers change their mind
To realize the joy left foolishly behind
And I feel secure down in my soul

And somehow I know
I know that love is on my side
Deep down I know
I know that love is on my side
And I'm gonna win, girl

Some nights I slip into the past
To better understand why two hearts never last
I just don't know why nights so tender turn so cold

Somehow I know
I know that love is on my side
Deep down I know
I know that love is on my side
And I'm gonna win, yeah

Walk on through the night
It's all just a game she plays so well
In time I know the tides will be turnin'
And she's gonna learn
Shine a light, shine it bright
And time will testify I know

I know that love is on my side
Deep down I know
I know that love is on my side
Somehow I know
I know that love is on my side
Deep down I know
I know that love is on my side
Oooh yeah, I know that love is on my side, I know
