Looking out
Across the nighttime
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs

Get me out
Into the nighttime
Four walls won't hold me tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite

If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do it that way
If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why does he do me that way

Reaching out
To touch a stranger
Electric eyes are everywhere
See that girl
She knows I'm watching
She likes the way I stare

If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why does he do me that way

I like livin' this way
I like lovin' this way

(That way) Why why
(That way) Why why

Looking out
Across the morning
Where the city's heart begins to beat
Reaching out
I touch her shoulder
I'm dreaming of the street

If they say,
Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say,
Why, why, ooo tell 'em
Why, why does he do me that way
If they say why, why, cha cha cha cha cha cha
Why does he do me that way
If they say why, why, why, ooo tell 'em
Why does he do me that way
If they say why, ooo tell 'em
Why does he do me that way
If they say why, da da da da da da da da
Why does he do my that way, I like living this way
Why, oh why, why, why

    Its not our duty to judge others that is reserved only for God. Mayb MJ made up with God before he died he might go to heaven and you miss out

    Can the bottom post be deleted? It's completely out of line. Go somewhere aside from a post of MJ lyrics to say that.

    I am 61 years old and although my kids grew up with MJ's songs I didn't pay much attention. I saw This Is It 3 times and thought it was absolutely awesome. I truly believe he was the most amazing talent to have ever lived. No one has the right to judge him as a person because we did not walk in his shoes. I pray every day for his kids and that he finally has peace after living a very complicated life. May God grant him peace. I love you Michael!

    I have listened to MJ since I was 6 years old. I am now 23 and still love his music. He was an amazing person and he cared about everyone and everything. His talent of singing and dancing was like nothing I have ever seen. I wished he was still alive so my kids could grow up with his music.
