|
Standin' at the airport lookin' down the strip, |
|
She was cryin' her eyes, she was bitin' her lip. |
|
Seven-four-seven just left from gate eleven |
|
And there's no turnin' round 'cos it's just leavin' the ground |
|
And gettin' higher higher. |
|
Standin' at the dock-side lookin' out to sea |
|
When i saw her 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 city. |
|
Night in the city, o-o-oh, |
|
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight, |
|
Night in the city drivin' you insane. |
|
In the city city |
|
Night in the city, o-o-oh, |
|
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight, |
|
Night in the city drivin' you insane. |
|
I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place. |
|
I waited for an hour, i 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 city. |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
I'll get you, yes, i'm gonna get you, |
|
Drivin' you insane. |
|
Night in the city, o-o-oh, |
|
Madness at mid-mid-mid-midnight, |
|
Night in the city drivin' you insane, |
|
Drivin' you insane, |
|
Drivin' you insane. |
