A little girl with very long plaites
about fourteen years old and rather pretty
But if she fell on her little stuss
you can be sure that she cried
But then one day she meets the mysterious
and the ice cold night of univers
She becomes a fighter, yes a heroine
And as for a friend she gets a cat
A destiny that she really can't understand
and she doesn't know how it will end
A little girl with very long plaites
about fourteen years old and rather pretty
Who now gets to fight the lackeys of evil
How will it end? How will it end?
It's only the stars who knows
How it will end, how it will endOn the Street Where You Live

I have often walked down this street before
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet 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 of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live
And oh, the towering feeling just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling that any second you may suddenly appear
People stop and stare, they don't bother me
For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live
