In City Dreams

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
