Lyrics Melissa Manchester

Melissa Manchester

City Nights

I got a hunger running deep

I got a pain that you can't see

Here in the city I feel free

To chase what's calling me

Now in a world that plays for keeps

And there's a party in the streets

I'm gonna do what I have to do

To make a life for me

But it takes you some time

'Till you get you a mind of your own

City nights, I'll be what I want to be

The nights are gonna rescue me

'Cause you know that I'm living

Deep in the city nights

Never gonna be alone

City nights will be my home

City nights, City nights

City nights, City nights

I work all day, it's wasting time

It pays the bills, it kills my mind

But I do what I have to do

To keep my dream alive

And when the moonlight hits the street

I feel the thunder of the beat

And suddenly I know

What I've been waiting for

But it takes you some time

'Till you get you a mind of your own

City nights, I'll be what I want to be

The nights are gonna rescue me

'Cause you know that I'm living

Deep in the city nights

Never gonna be alone

City nights will be my home

City nights, City nights

City nights, City nights

City nights, City nights

City nights, City nights

I can't wait any longer

I know where I belong

There's my star moving faster

But I'll take my changes I got to be strong

City nights

City nights, I'll be what I want to be

The night's gonna rescue me

'Cause you know that I'm living

Deep in the city nights

I'll be what I want to be

The night's gonna rescue me

'Cause you know that I'm living

Deep in the city nights...
