Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm flowin' through you like water

Yeah, my body's swayin' side to side

I'm focused in on the moment

All the lights are diamonds in the sky, yeah

[PreChorus]

And I

Finally see myself like you see me now

Took time

Time to see myself 'cause I

[PreChorus]

I never thought I would find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I never thought I would find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I found it in the

[Chorus]

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the dark, dark, dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in your heart

In the dark, dark, dark

[Chorus]

(Yeah) In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the dark, dark, dark

[Verse 2]

I knew the night that I met you

Underneath the New York City lights, mmm

Baby, no matter what I do

There's an angel standin' by my side

[PreChorus]

And I

Finally see myself like you see me now

Took time

Time to see myself 'cause I

[PreChorus]

I never thought I would find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I never thought I would find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I found it in the

[PreChorus]

I never thought I would find it

Find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I found it, oh

I never thought I would find it

But I found what I was lookin' for

I found it in the

[Chorus]

In the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

I found it in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the dark, dark, dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in the dark

In the city, in your heart

In the dark, dark, dark

[Outro]

I found it in the dark

I found it in the dark

I found it in the dark
