In city dreams
down in the dirt a candy wrapper.
The pretty ladies, on parade, with flashing eyes
they come on smiling.
In city dreams
when neon lights commence to shining.
The streetwise kids could steal your soul
and sell it to you on the corner.
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
The night's ablaze
the city burns from red to amber.
The sidewalk circus floating by
a crowd of bright eyed empty faces.
They're playing the game
this game of magical illusion.
That leaves you wondering
if you really have arrived
or are only dreaming.
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
down in the streets the dawn is breaking.
And you're still wondering
if you really have arrived
or are only dreaming
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
In city dreams
