The lights on the westway go on

 

A million cars hurry home

 

An ice-cream van shuts off its tinsel bells

 

Winter won't be long

 

 

I see you everyday

 

I watch you as you walk down this way

 

We pass on the stairs on this council block

 

Too shy to find words to say

 

 

But your smile is a prayer that prays for love

 

and your heart is a kite that longs to fly

 

Allelujah, here I am

 

Let's cut the strings tonight

 

 

So meet me on the corner at eight

 

Let's get out of this place

 

We'll kiss the first of a million kisses

 

and let the past fall away

 

 

'Cause your smile is a prayer...

 

 

For your smile is a prayer...

 

We'll kiss the first of a million kisses, ah
