The City and You

Lyrics

The night invites It takes us in The big smoke ablaze Where do we begin The taxi empties We tumble out The city beckons Buzzes and shouts I'm mesmerised By all the lights Everything Starts to spin Oh, what a view The city and you I look across Into your eyes To see if they say What your words disguise This is perfect Pure and sublime This is too much Too good a time I'm mesmerised By all the lights Everything Starts to spin Oh, what a view I don't ever Want to let go Forever For all we know It's now or never The sky lightens The night is no more We can't stop laughing As we fall through the door I'm mesmerised By all the lights Everything Starts to spin Oh, what a view The city and you Damn, what a view The city and you
