Lady-oh, lady-oh 
I walked the streets again last night. 
I saw you in the city light 
like a vision, lady-oh.

Lady I, lady I 
I've been waitin' around such a long long time
believin' I could make you mine
just wanting you lady-oh. 

But here I am and there you are
much too far to even hear me.
Hurts a lot you know it does it hurts a lot.
Oh, lady-oh
am I gonna ever learn 
what I never learned 
before

City lights, city lights
burn so warm and they burn so bright,
but me I walk the city night 
to forget you, lady-oh. 

But here I am and there you are
much too far to even hear me.
Hurts a lot you know it does it hurts a lot. 
Oh, lady-oh
am I gonna ever learn 
what I never learned 
before
