Lyrics

I never cared for this city but I can't stay away
It's too late for survival now what's that anyway
And if you get lonesome in the thick of the crowd
Maybe they won't notice, maybe they'll help you out
You even seen sunrise at noon
Felt burnt gasoline by the light of the moon
I will go walking beneath starless skies
The lights of the city will stay by my side
My home is the byway, I'm free as a kite
I'll be cutting my string soon but for now hold me tight
And I shall not wonder, I shall not roam
Till the wind gets to shiftin' and I'm carried along
Have you even seen sunrise at noon
Felt burnt gasoline by the light of the moon
I will go walking beneath starless skies
The lights of the city will stay by my side
You even seen sunrise at noon
Felt burnt gasoline by the light of the moon
I will go walking beneath starless skies
The lights of the city will stay by my side
The lights of the city will stay by my side
