|
Standin' at the airport |
|
Lookin' down the strip |
|
She was dryin' her eyes, |
|
She was bitin' her lip |
|
Seven-four-seven just left from Gate Eleven |
|
And there's no turnin' 'round |
|
'Cause 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... |
|
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. |
