Lyrics
Looking out
Observing the surroundings
Across the night-time
During the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
The city appears awake with a restless charm
Hear his voice
Hearing a male voice
Shake my window
The voice vibrates through my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Expressive and enticing sounds
2nd Verse
Starting the second verse
Get me out
Desire to leave
Into the night-time
Embracing the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight
Confined spaces won't restrict me tonight
If this town
If this town symbolizes temptation
Is just an apple
Expressing a willingness to indulge in it
Then let me take a bite
Metaphorically desiring to experience life
Chorus
Entering the chorus
If they say -
When confronted with questions
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Explaining actions as inherent human behavior
Why, why, does he do me that way
Addressing the impact on the narrator
If they say -
Repeating the chorus
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Reiterating human nature's influence
Why, why, does he do me that way
Revisiting the emotional impact
Reaching out
Stretching out to connect with a stranger
To touch a stranger
Noticing the prevalence of surveillance
Electric eyes are everywhere
Struck by the intensity of gaze
See that boy
Aware of a particular boy's attention
He knows I'm watching
Realizing the reciprocation of interest
He likes the way I stare
Enjoying the attention and gaze
Chorus
Returning to the chorus
If they say -
Reiterating the explanation of human nature
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Revisiting the emotional impact
Why, why, does he do me that way
Expressing the impact of actions
If they say -
Repeating the chorus
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Reiterating the explanation of human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
Expressing the impact of actions
I like livin' this way
Expressing contentment with the current lifestyle
I like lovin' this way
Expressing satisfaction with love

Looking out
Looking out in the morning
Across the morning
The city starts its daily rhythm
The city's heart begins to beat
Stretching out again
Reaching out
Physically connecting with a dream
I touch her shoulder
Imagining a street in the dream
I'm dreaming of the street
Reaffirming the chorus
If they say -
Responding to questions about behavior
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Reiterating human nature's influence
Why, why, does he do me that way
Expressing the emotional impact
If they say -
Repeating the chorus
Why, why, tell 'em that is human nature
Reiterating human nature's influence
Why, why, does he do me that way
Expressing the emotional impact
I like livin' this way
Expressing contentment with the current lifestyle
[Repeat chorus - ad-lib and fade-out
Repeating the chorus with ad-lib and fade-out
