LOVE DOWN THE STREET

Description: Guitar
I'm in the mood for love
Simply because
You're near me
And when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love
I like my new apartment
'Cos I can hear the birds sing
And every Sunday oh Sunday
I hear the church bells ringing
I got a living-room fireplace
More than adequate heat
Sun coming in the windows, yeah yeah
And love down the street, mm-hmm, right down the street
Oh look, lucky me what I've found
Love down the street
Got good coffee 'round the corner
A good deli down the block
Where they're still speaking Italian
I love to listen to 'em talk
I got a stop on the train line
Where the avenues meet
Got a first-class second-hand record shop
And love down the street, yeah, love down the street
I love my new little town
And my love down the street
Love down the street
Love down the street, right on down the street
Love down the street
So no more talking long distance
No more running, running for the mail
No more driving to the goddamn Philadelphia International Airport, yeah
No more riding the rails
Now it's, "What are you doing later?"
Now it's, "What are you doing now?"
Now it's, "Be there in a moment"
Love down the street, love down the street, yeah yeah
Love down the street
Oh it's all finally coming around, yeah yeah
I got love down the street, right down the street
Darling but when you're near me
Honey but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love
