I have often walked down this street(1)__ before,
But the pavement always stayed beneath my __fever(2)__ before.
All at once am I several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.

Are there lilac trees in the __heart(3)__ of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of _every_(4)__ door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!

And, oh, the towering feeling__(5)__
Just to know somehow you are _near_(6)__ ;
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly _pair(7)__ !

People stop and _stair_(8)__ . They don't bother me,
For there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather(9)__ be.
Let the _time_(10)__ go by. I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.
