The Avenue
[Verse 1]
Anything could happen
And you can bet it will
Why do we keep living for tomorrow?
Call it human nature
We're all looking to belong
No one wants to face it all alone

[Chorus]
But when we all come out to the avenue
And we go dancing in the street
We make the cold nights feel just a little bit warmer
Whenever we meet
We've gotta stick together

[Verse 2]
Maybe all the answers
Are right in front of me
Maybe we're just dying to be free
And I know times are changing
And times are changing me
But somehow I still manage to believe

[Chorus]
But when we all come out to the avenue
And we go dancing in the street
We make the cold nights feel just a little bit warmer
Whenever we meet
We've gotta stick together (Together)
We've gotta stick together (Together)
Mmm, we've gotta stick together (Together)
We've gotta stick together (Together)
But when we all come out to the avenue (Ooh)
And we go dancing in the street (Dancin' in the street)
We make the cold nights feel just a little bit warmer
Whenever we meet (Whenever we meet)
And if we just let go of the physical
While we play underneath the stars
And we remember we're all children of light
That's who we really are

[Outro]
We've gotta stick together
Together
Together
Together (We've gotta stick together)
We've gotta stick together
We've gotta stick together
