Hey - (look at) those big city lights

They won't shine tonight for me

It's raining - I'm walking the streets

My heart is way down - down in my shoes

Talking, talking to myself,

There's nobody else who can hear me



Your love put me on the corner

When I came back and found you were gone

Tonight I feel the city won't

let me come home



Hey - (look at) those big city lights

They used to be so friendly to me

I came to New York to make it our home

Now you've gone and left me here - here on my own

East side, West side - who's on my side

If I could find where you are I might know



Laughing and drinking

with bad weather friends

Makes me forget for a while

But every time I drain my glass

all I can see is your smile



Hey - (look at) those big city lights

Buildings closing in on me

Hey - (look at) those big city lights

Only make it harder to see



I can't believe you really left me

All this time you said I was your man,

But I'm gonna find you,

and I know that I can,

know that I can



Hey -

Tell me what about those big city lights



REPEAT
