There's something about this city About the way the traffic moves I'm standing at the top of the tower Watching the sunset over you It's like a painting with all of the colors But there's something underneath There's a darkness in these city streets I feel it in my heartbeat Like somethings coming over me Yeah, there's something in these city streets The rain is pouring down these cobblestones And I could walk away but I could never really go There's something about Istanbul There's a melody in the sounds of the ferry A symphony as all the voices carry I whisper my secrets to these stone walls And I hear them answer, hear my city call The sea sings a song to the sky Something keeps me here after all this time There's something about these city streets But I feel it in my heartbeat There's something I could never leave The rain is pouring down these cobblestones And I could walk away but I could never really go The sun is turning this city to gold And I could walk away but I could never really go There's something about Istanbul I feel it in my heartbeat There's something about Istanbul
