Lyrics The City's Asleep - The Meeting Places, Jim Fairchild

The City's Asleep

We’ve said it’s alright
Darling, it’s ok
We’ll talk about things
Just no more conversation
I went outside today
I opened my eyes
The colors I long to see
You just never seem to find
Never said anything that you would take that way
Turning down overtures, everything begins the same
Allayed fears are on the line
Keep us guessing all the time
Through clouded windows
I see it’s raining
As I watch you ascend alone
Wouldn’t mind you staying
And when it’s our time
The city’s asleep
Looking down at the world below
It is such a sight to see
