City Lights(Album Version) - Rick Trevino

作词：Bill Anderson

作曲：Bill Anderson

A bright array of city lights

As far as I can see

The great white way shines through the night

For lonely guys like me

The cabarets and honky tonks

their flashing signs invite

A broken heart to lose itself

in the glow of city lights

Lights that say forget her

name in a glass of sherry wine

Lights that offer other girls

for empty hearts like mine

They paint a pretty picture

of a world that's gay and bright

But it's just a mask for loneliness

behind those city lights

The world was dark

And god made stars to brighten up the night

But I don't believe that god

above he don't city lights

For it's just a place for men to cry

When things don't turn out right

Just a place to run away

And hide behind those city lights

Lights that say forget her love

In a different athmosphere

Lights that lure are nothing

But a masquarade for tears

They paint a pretty picture

But my arms can't hold her tight

Then I just can't say I love you

To a street of city lights
