City Song Lyrics by Howard Jones

City Song Lyrics

    It was that night at nowhere, i saw you standing there
    Darlin' you were hungry for life, an innocent in this land

    What is it about this city, that brings us all to life
    Ten millions souls vibrating,
    They're shimmering in the night

    You mustn't think of staying,
    The price is more than you'd think
    It's giving up the sweetest part of you,
    For this heartless prize

    When does a vision of heaven become a living hell
    Ten million souls vibrating, they're acting it out for real

    Where do all the lonely people go,
    When they want some lovin'
    Where do all the lonely people hide, when they feel like cryin'

    It was that night at nowhere, a cold glass in your hand
    Darlin' you were angry with life, a prisoner in this land

    What is it about this city, that brings us all to life
    Ten millions souls vibrating,
    They're shimmering in the night

    Where do all the lonely people go,
    When they want some lovin'
    Where do all the lonely people hide, when they feel like cryin'
    Where do all the lonely people go, in this crowded city
    Where do all the lonely people hide, there's no sanctuary

    Nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide
    Nowhere to handshake, nowhere to smile
    Won't you talk with me
    Spend some time and give me life
    When does a vision of heaven become a living hell
    Ten million souls vibrating
    They're shimmering in the night

    Where do all the lonely people go, in this crowded city
    Where do all the lonely people hide, there's no sanctuary

    A vision of heaven
    A vision of heaven
