Well the sun’s going down With its deep amber light Embracing the town as we fall into night To the silvery sound as the birds fly away Getting ready for love Getting out of the day
It is the city of night It is the city if night Leave the worries of day behind And dream a new dream tonight
All the lands are a glow All the lids painted red And you wish you could take That last thing you said Well the night is a drum Singing songs of delight But when dawn comes along Love is lost in the light
But in the city of night Oh, in the city of night Leave the troubles of day behind And dream a new dream tonight
