Testo di City Lights

A bright array of city lights as far as i can see The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me The cabarets and honky-tonks their flashing signs invite A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights. Lights that say forget her name in a glass of sherry wine Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights. The world was dark and god made stars to brighten up the night But god who put the stars above i don't believe made those lights For it's just a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right Just a place to run away and hide behind those city lights...
