lyrics

Light up, light up, light up your lazy blue eyes
Moon's up, night's up, takin' this town by surprise
Night time, night time, the day left an hour ago
City light time, must you get ready so slow?
There are places to come from and places to go

Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spillin' out in to the streets
Colours go flashin' in time

Take off, take off, take off your stay at home shoes
Break off, shake off, chase off those stay at home blues
Stairway, stairway down to the crowds in the street
They go their way, looking for faces to greet
But we run on laughing, with no one to meet

Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spillin' out in to the streets
Colours go waltzin' in time

Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spillin' out in to the streets
Colours go waltzin' in time
