City Lights Lyrics by Lou Reed

City Lights Lyrics

    Don't these city lights
    Light these streets to life
    Don't these crazy nights
    Bring us together
    Any rainy day
    You can dance those blues away
    Don't these city lights
    Bring us together

    Charlie chaplin's cane
    Well it flicked away the rain
    Things weren't quite the same
    After he came here
    But then when he left
    Upon our own request
    Things weren't quite the same
    After he came here

    Don't these city lights
    Bring the streets to life
    Don't these crazy nights
    Bring us together
    Any rainy day
    You can dance those blues away
    Don't these city lights
    Bring us together

    We're supposed to be
    A land of liberty
    And those city lights
    To blaze forever
    But that little tramp
    Leaning on that street corner lamp
    When he left us
    His humor left forever

    We're supposed to be
    A land of liberty
    And those city lights
    To blaze forever
    But that little tramp
    Leaning on that street corner lamp
    When he left us
    His humor left us forever, ever

    Don't these city lights
    Bring the streets to life
    Don't these crazy nights
    Bring us together
    Any rainy day
    You can dance those blues away
    Don't these city lights
    Bring us together
    Together
