Lyrics Pink Martini

Pink Martini

City Of Night

Well the sun's going down

With its deep umber light

Embracing the town as we fall into night

To the silvery sound as the birds fly away

Getting ready for love

Getting out of the day

It is the city of night

It is the city if night

Leave the worries of day behind

And dream a new dream tonight

All the lands are a glow

All the lips painted red

And you wish you could take

Back the last thing you said

Well the night is a drum

Singing songs of delight

But when dawn comes along

Love is lost in the light

But in the city of night

Oh, in the city of night

Leave the troubles of day behind

And dream a new dream tonight

Oh in the city of night

Oh, in the city of night

You can leave it all far behind

And dream a new dream tonight
