City Song Songtext
von Howard Jones
City Song Songtext
It was that night at nowhere
I saw you standing there
Darlin′ you were hungry for life
An innocent in this land
What is it about this city
That brings us all to life?
Ten millions souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
You mustn′t think of staying
The price is more than you'd think
It's giving up the sweetest part of you
For this heartless prize
When does a vision of heaven
Become a living hell?
Ten million souls vibrating
They′re acting it out for real
Where do all the lonely people go
When they want some lovin′?
Where do all the lonely people hide
When they feel like cryin'?
It was that night at nowhere
A cold glass in your hand
Darlin′ you were angry with life
A prisoner in this land
What is it about this city
That brings us all to life?
Ten millions souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go
When they want some lovin′?
Where do all the lonely people hide
When they feel like cryin'?
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere a handshake
Nowhere a smile
Won't you talk with me
Spend some time and give me life?
When does a vision of heaven
Become a living hell?
Ten million souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There's no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
I saw you standing there
Darlin′ you were hungry for life
An innocent in this land
What is it about this city
That brings us all to life?
Ten millions souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
You mustn′t think of staying
The price is more than you'd think
It's giving up the sweetest part of you
For this heartless prize
When does a vision of heaven
Become a living hell?
Ten million souls vibrating
They′re acting it out for real
Where do all the lonely people go
When they want some lovin′?
Where do all the lonely people hide
When they feel like cryin'?
It was that night at nowhere
A cold glass in your hand
Darlin′ you were angry with life
A prisoner in this land
What is it about this city
That brings us all to life?
Ten millions souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go
When they want some lovin′?
Where do all the lonely people hide
When they feel like cryin'?
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
Nowhere to run to
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere a handshake
Nowhere a smile
Won't you talk with me
Spend some time and give me life?
When does a vision of heaven
Become a living hell?
Ten million souls vibrating
They're shimmering in the night
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There's no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people hide?
There′s no sanctuary
(A vision of heaven)
(A vision of heaven)
Where do all the lonely people go
In this crowded city?
