I think the asker knew the origin of the lyric.
I think she wants to know the MEANING of the lyric.
If you ever saw the music video, the woman in question is "on the street" a lot, (but also "around town" - but even prostitutes sometimes hang out IN clubs, etc)
Was billy ocean dreaming about a prostitute? Or was it that the woman of his dreams happened to spend a lot of time walking?
Nobody can know for sure,
however.

Billy denies it's about prostitution, or (as others have said, child molesting)
Now.. roxanne by the police? Definately :-)

I don't think that Billy Ocean was dreaming of a prostitute when he wrote that song.

LOL, that's a good question. I'd have to listen to the song again before I answer.

I'd say it's a love song, unless you were dreaming about a hooker!!
