Lyrics

City Lights

I?m taking the long way on the subway down to time?s square
Where the lights are like a carousel on Christmas Eve
Or usually they are, but tonight it?s dark and dawned
And you?re a pawn in their fade

One night on the harbor, why I bother
When all I do is wonder where you are
And why your tears shine like the sea
Alone, don?t go, alone with the lights
Or so I?m led to believe

And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside my head, I am dreaming
And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside my head, I am singing

There?s not enough liberty in this city to put this heart to rest
And end the torture that you give me, that you gave me
At Rockefeller, Rockefeller, Rockefeller center
Or so I?m led to believe

And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside my head, I am dreaming
And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside my head, I am singing

I?m dreaming, just dreaming. Dreaming of you.
And I?m singing, just singing. Singing for you.
When the lights end their fade, when the world begins again
I?ll be waiting for you

And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside me head I am dreaming of you
And the city lights, they are dimming
While inside my head, I am singing for you
