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 gla** 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
