ivory joe hunter - city lights lyrics
Loading...
the 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 gl-ss 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 lights that say forget her love
in a different atmosphere
the lights that lure are nothing but
a masquerade for tears
they paint a pretty picture
but my arms can’t hold them tight
and i just can’t say i love you
to a street of city lights
