I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend
I feel alive and it feels so good
It seems like I never will be blue again
I shake my head and I close my eyes
I concentrate on my lucky stars
Oh I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend

I feel alive in the city
though it’s cold and grey
We give each other the best we have
She loves my kisses and I love her cat
I shake my head and I close my eyes
And send a little prayer to
my lucky stars
I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend
I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend

Feel like making my guitar
telling her that I don’t pretend
Feel like the whole world trembles 
and I love the sounds
The cars are passing and the lights
are flashing it’s a joyful town
I feel alive in the city
I feel alive in the city
I feel alive in the city

I remember the days
that where mucky and grey
When the jokes weren’t funny
and the melancholy wouldn’t go away
When the writers were dull
and not a soul around that would
see you through

I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend
It’s spooky when I think
of what I worried about
It seems so unreal now that 
I have no doubts
I put my hand on her hips
and I close my eyes
I move on over to my lucky stars
Oh I feel alive in the city 
and I love my friend
