| The lights of the city shine bright in the car wheels
|
| The girls look pretty with bare legs and high heels
|
| The knives and the guns are prepared for the drug deals
|
| As the sun goes down in my town
|
| The drunk takes a hit from his first since nightfall
|
| The pimp on the corner counts every curb crawl
|
| The cops in their cars sit and wait for that first call
|
| As the sun goes down in my town
|
| The darkness reaches out and takes my hand again
|
| As the memories of the day all fade away
|
| And the neon lights are smiles like an old friend
|
| The sirens start to sing
|
| Dragging me in
|
| I shout «see you later» and head for the west-bound
|
| The tube escalator is slow so I run down
|
| The night has secrets waiting to be found
|
| As the sun goes down in my town
|
| The darkness reaches out and takes my hand again
|
| As the memories of the day all fade away
|
| And the neon lights are smiles like an old friend
|
| The sirens start to sing
|
| Dragging me in
|
| I shout «see you later» and head for the west-bound
|
| The tube escalator is slow so I run down
|
| The night has secrets waiting to be found
|
| As the sun goes down in my town (x3) |
