Lyrics Sound Of The City - Tom McRae

Sound Of The City

So baby there you stand
The bottle in your hand
Shouting to the night
While the city sleeps
Caught in the light of a car
While a subway station sparks
I see your face again
Guess it’s time to leave
And I watched you fall from a great height
You watched me fail night after night
Still the sound
Still the sound of the city tonight
Who keeps my dreams and my demons alive
Baby I, I’m still alive
I hear the city breathe
I dream the city’s dreams
And she’s in still my arms
For another year
So bring the broken hearts
Call in the king of cards
I’ll make them disappear
With a sleight of hand
And I watched you fall from a great height
And you watched me fail night after night
Still the sound
Still the sound of the city tonight
Keeps my dreams and my demons alive
Baby I, I’m still alive
Still you don’t come
You won’t come
Your fever has broken
And daylight is blinding your eyes
And still you don’t come
You won’t come
The city she’s not done
She’s calling, she’s calling your name
Your name
The sound of the city
The sound of the city tonight
