Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the daylight
Is falling down into the night
And the sharks try
To cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to catch an
Outrageous thrill
But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune
Which never stand still
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
[Verse 2]
When the sunlight
Is rising up in my eyes
And the long night
Has left me back at somebody's side
It feels alright for a long, sweet minute
Like hours before
But it's more like looking out for something
I can't find anymore
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
[Verse 3]
There is no dream that you can't make true
If you're looking for love
But there's no girl who's burning the ice
Away from my heart
Maybe tonight!
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
[Chorus]
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
