Ferlin Husky - City Lights lyrics

Your rating:


WRITER BILL ANDERSON



The 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 cabarets 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 hearts like mine

They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright

But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights

The world was dark and God made stars to brighten 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 atmosphere

(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
