Mendiola Street is a short thoroughfare in the district of San Miguel in the City of Manila, Metro Manila, the Philippines. It is named after Enrique Mendiola, an educator, textbook author and member of the first Board of Regents of the University of the Philippines. As a street close to Malacañang Palace, the President of the Philippines' official residence, it has been the site of numerous and sometimes bloody demonstrations.
The street crosses the Mendiola Bridge, officially known as Chino Roces Bridge in honor of Chino Roces, a well-known figure during the Philippines' Martial Law years. (An illuminated street sign above the intersection of Recto and Mendiola erroneously refers to the latter street as Chino Roces Avenue).
Mendiola Street starts at the intersection of Legarda Street and Claro M. Recto Avenue and ends at José P. Laurel Street, just outside Malacañang Palace. Some colleges and universities that form Manila City's University Belt are also located along Mendiola Street.

You will allow a low light
Will sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for love?
And who wouldn't do all of that?
Looks like I've been the sole nobody
And now I couldn't follow this
I believe, I believe now
See you a lot near the site
And to you I throw a low light
And the sight of you is so in my body
And the sight I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for me now
And who wouldn't have done all of that
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
I believe, I believe now
I believe, I believe now
The sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
(I believe, I believe)
The sunlight heal the core of your body
(I believe)
And the sound I hold so dear
(I believe)
I believe, I believe now
