The bright array of city lights as far as I can see The great white way shines through the night for lonely girls like me A cabarete a honky tonk their flashing signs invite A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights Lights that say forget his name in a gla** of cherry wine Lights that offer other guys 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 Lights that say forget his love in a different athmosphere Lights that lure are nothing but a masquarade 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
