Sound Of The City Lyrics

Sound Of The City lyrics

So baby there you stand

The bottle in your hand

Shouting to the
night

While the city sleeps



Caught in the light of a car

Or subways station sparks

I see your face again

Guess it’s time to
leave



And I watch you fall from a great height

And you watch
me fail night after night

And the still the sound, still the sound of the
city tonight

Keeps my dreams and my demons alive

Baby I’m still
alive



I hear the city breathe

I dream the city’s dreams

And she’s still in my arms

For another year



So bring your
broken hearts

Call me The King of Cards

I’ll make it disappear

With a sleight of hand



And I watch you fall from a great
height

And you watch me fail night after night

And the still the
sound, still the sound of the city tonight

Keeps my dreams and my demons
alive

Baby I’m still alive



Still you don’t come, you won’t
come

But the fever has broken

And the daylight is blinding your
eyes

And still you don’t come, you won’t come

But the city she’s
not done

She’s calling, she’s calling your name
