A bright array of city lights as far as I can see
The great white way shines through the night for
lonely guys like me The cabaretes and honky tonks
their flashing signs invite A broken heart to lose
itself in the glow of city lights Lights that say
forget her name in a glass of cherry wine Lights
that offer other girls for empty arms like mine
They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay
and bright But it's just a mask of loneliness
behind those city lights

up the night Did the God who put those stars above
make those city lights Did he make a place for men
to cry when things don't turn out right Are we
just supposed to run and hide behind those city
lights Lights that say forget her love in a
different athmosphere Lights that lure are nothing
but a masquarade for tears They paint a pretty
picture but my arms can't hold them tight And I
just can't say I love you to a street of city
lights
