City of Lights
Life is like a journey on a road that's within
Head says you should stay, but your heart says to begin
So you go
But you don't want to go
Any life worth living isn't life just filled with ease
You just stay forgiving through the forest and the trees
And you'll go
Just where you want to go
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride to the city, the city of light
Light shines like a diamond in the city at night
When that diamond shines, you know that everything's all right
But you know, we got a way to go
Let us meet the master, we don't wanna make him wait
You just keep a-knockin', he will open up the gate
To the city of light
Master is a man with a plan I can understand
Master is a man of great reflection
Master is a man who lays his hand across the land
Master is the man of our affection
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride to the city, the city of light
Head says you should stay, but your heart says to begin
So you go
But you don't want to go
Any life worth living isn't life just filled with ease
You just stay forgiving through the forest and the trees
And you'll go
Just where you want to go
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride to the city, the city of light
Light shines like a diamond in the city at night
When that diamond shines, you know that everything's all right
But you know, we got a way to go
Let us meet the master, we don't wanna make him wait
You just keep a-knockin', he will open up the gate
To the city of light
Master is a man with a plan I can understand
Master is a man of great reflection
Master is a man who lays his hand across the land
Master is the man of our affection
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride to the city, the city of light
