Light of the City

I'm lying in my bed
You're out there in the cold
You got no one to love you
I've got no one to hold
I once knew a woman
She thought I was born in the clouds
I spent all my halos
On this running around
We're just people who were people to other people
Spending a night in the light of the city
Asking all the places and faces we meet
Could ya find something better to give me
Spending the night in the light of the city
We're spending the night in the light of the city
I want to float above the skyline
City lights at our toes
Run our fingers down the high line
Leave Williamsburg below
Now we're just people who were people to other people
Spending a night in the light of the city
Asking all the places and faces we meet
Could ya find something better to give me
Spending the night in the light of the city
We're spending the night in the light of the city

Let's chase the sun across the river and follow it downtown
Just to find our own reflections in darkened windows
And pools of streetlight on the ground
We're just people who were people to other people
Spending a night in the light of the city
Asking all the places and faces we meet
Could ya find something better to give me
Spending the night in the light of the city
We're spending the night in the light of the city
People who were people to other people
People who were people to other people
People who were people to other people
People who were people to other people
