Here's a door and Here's a window Here's the ceiling Here's the floor The room is lit like A black and white movie The t.v.'s on, that's what it's for And if you walk real slowly You can feel the planet breathe There's no need to feel so lowly Now that we've all learned to give Accidently kelly street Where friends and strangers Sometimes meet Accidently kelly street I never thought life Could be so sweet In the garden birds are singing The sun is shining on the path The wind is talking to the flowers The dogs and cats all take a bath And if you stop that talking You can hear the traffic sigh Throw away those keys Start walking, watch those Tiny things go by Accidently kelly street Where friends and strangers Sometimes meet Accidently kelly street I never thought life Could be so sweet It's sunday everyday And there's no need to rush around Inside of everybody there's sun And laughter to be found It seems that we're on holidays And sleeping in is not a sin All the housework's done by teatime I'm feeling good about The way i've been Perhaps this optimism Will crash on down Like a house of cards I know that my decision To change my life was not that hard Accidently kelly street Where friends and strangers Sometimes meet Accidently kelly street I never thought life Could be so sweet Accidently kelly street Where friends and strangers Sometimes meet Accidently kelly street I never thought life Could be so sweet Accidently... Accidently... Accidently kelly street I never thought life Could be so sweet!
