City Lights

Driving past eighteen million fence posts
On an old two lane road
It's summertime in New Mexico
And it's hot, don't you know

When you look at me I can't help but smile
Guess that's why I drove all these miles
And I've been drinking to drown away my sorrows
But I can't wait to hold you in my arms tomorrow

We can sit in a field stare at the stars you in my arms
And I'll hang on every word that you say, it'll be okay
Cause I'm so wrapped in you after everything we've been through
Both pushing to satisfy our dreams
And I couldn't live without you that would tear my heart in two
You shine brighter than those city lights, those city lights

You've been living in Southern California
And I've been playing Cowboy in the West
People said they're never gonna make it
Too much distance, there'e too much space between

But you gave up everything you owned
Just to have a life that you could call your own
And I've been playing under neon lights
But I'm packing up my bags gonna see you tonight

We can sit in a field stare at the stars you in my arms
And I'll hang on every word that you say, it'll be okay
Cause I'm so wrapped in you after everything we've been through
Both pushing to satisfy our dreams
And I couldn't live without you that would tear my heart in two
You shine brighter than those city lights, those city lights

Those city lights
