Night in the City

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Standin' at the airport Lookin' down the strip, She was cryin' her eyes, She was bitin' her lip. 747 just left from gate eleven And there's no turnin' round 'cos it's just leavin' the ground And gettin' higher. Standin' at the dock-side Lookin' out to sea When I saw her there But she did not see me. There she stood with no hope Because she'd missed the boat And as her dreams sailed away She headed back for the day, Back to the city. Night in the city, oh oh oh, Madness at midnight, Night in the city Drivin' you insane. I was runnin' kinda lonely At the city place. I waited for an hour, Never saw her face. Crazy ladies that wait And slide around like a snake I just can't take anymore, I'm going in through the door Into the city. Night in the city, oh oh oh, Madness at midnight, Night in the city Drivin' you insane.
