Intro

The bright array of city lights as far

as I can see..

 The Great White Way shines through the

 night, for lonely guys like me.

The cabarets and honky tonks, their

flashing signs invite..a broken heart to

 lose itself, in the glow of city lights.

Chorus

Lights that say, forget her name, in a glass

of sherry wine.

Lights that offer other girls, are empty

hearts like mine.

They paint a pretty picture, of a world that's

gay and bright.

 But it's just a mask for loneliness..behind

 those city lights.

 (INTERLUDE:)

Chorus

 The lights that say, forget her love, in a

different atmosphere.

 The lights that lure are nothing, but a masquerade

for tears.

They paint a pretty picture, but my arms can't

hold them tight.

 And I just can't say, I love you, to a street

 of city lights.

Outro

City lights..
