King Midas – City Lights lyrics

Take a joyride downtown
Hand in hand in the wild neon underground
You’ve been walking around,
around the railroad tracks for too long
You don’t know what to do now
You want midnight streetlights,
not small town rain
You’ve been waiting around
for such a long time

And you love the way that it makes you feel
You love the way how it makes you real
You love the way that she makes you feel
But then it’s gone – then it’s gone

So sexy with the sirens going on and off
as you howl at the moon in a car park
You walk all night with your shoes full of blood
but you will never grow old although it’s still dark

And you love the way that it makes you feel
You love the way how it makes you real
You love the way that she makes you feel
But then it’s gone – the city’s gone
The sounds are dead – is it in your head?
And the city’s gone now –
and the city sounds
The streets are dead – is it in your head?
