Night in the City
Standin' at the airport, lookin' down the strip
She was dryin' her eyes, she was bitin' her lip
Seven-four-seven just left from Gate Eleven
And there's no turnin' 'round 'cause it's just leavin' the ground
And gettin' higher, higher
Standin' at the dock-side, lookin' out to sea,
When I saw her, but she did not see me
There she stood with no hope because she'd missed the boat
And as her dreams sailed away, she headed back for the day
Back to the city, city
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
In the city
In the city, city
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
I just can't take anymore, I'm goin' in through the door
Into the city, city
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Drivin' you insane
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
Drivin' you insane
Drivin' you insane
She was dryin' her eyes, she was bitin' her lip
Seven-four-seven just left from Gate Eleven
And there's no turnin' 'round 'cause it's just leavin' the ground
And gettin' higher, higher
Standin' at the dock-side, lookin' out to sea,
When I saw her, but she did not see me
There she stood with no hope because she'd missed the boat
And as her dreams sailed away, she headed back for the day
Back to the city, city
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
In the city
In the city, city
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
I just can't take anymore, I'm goin' in through the door
Into the city, city
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Drivin' you insane
Night in the city
Madness at midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
Drivin' you insane
Drivin' you insane
