In city dreams Down in the dirt and candy wrappers There pretty ladies on parade with flashing eyes They come on smiling In city dreams Where neon lights commence to shining There's streetwise kids could steal your soul And sell it to you on the corner In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams The night's ablaze The city burns from red to amber A sidewalk circus floating by Crowd of bright eyed empty faces Woh, they're playing a game, yeah This game of magical illusion That leaves you wondering If you really have arrived Or only dreaming In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams Down in the streets the dawn is breaking And you're still wondering If you really have arrived Or are only dreaming In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams In city dreams
