City Lights

Don't these city lights light these streets to life All these crazy nights bring us together Any rainy day, you can dance your blues away Don't these city lights bring us together Charlie Chaplin's cane, well it flicked away the rain Things weren't quite the same, after he came here But then when he left, upon our own request Things weren't quite the same, after he came here Don't these city lights bring the streets to life All these crazy nights bring us together Any rainy day you can dance your blues away Don't these city lights bring us together We're supposed to be a land of liberty And those city lights to blaze forever But that little tramp, ooh, on that street corner lamp When he left us, it's humor left for ever We're supposed to be a land of liberty And those city lights to blaze forever But that little tramp, leaning on that street corner lamp When he left us, it's humor left for ever Don't these city lights bring the streets to life All these crazy nights bring us together Any rainy day you can dance your blues away Don't these city lights bring us together --- City Lights - Lou Reed
