Lyrics
The night invites
It takes us in
The big smoke ablaze
Where do we begin
The taxi empties
We tumble out
The city beckons
Buzzes and shouts
I'm mesmerised
By all the lights
Everything
Starts to spin
Oh, what a view
The city and you
I look across
Into your eyes
To see if they say
What your words disguise
This is perfect
Pure and sublime
This is too much
Too good a time
I'm mesmerised
By all the lights
Everything
Starts to spin
Oh, what a view
I don't ever
Want to let go
Forever
For all we know
It's now or never
The sky lightens
The night is no more
We can't stop laughing
As we fall through the door
I'm mesmerised
By all the lights
Everything
Starts to spin
Oh, what a view
The city and you
Damn, what a view
The city and you
