MCGUINN, CLARK & HILLMAN
"City"
(R. McGuinn-C. McGuinn)

Left her home, came to town, ran around in the city
Lost some dreams, found some scenes, lost and found in the city
Met some men, just pretend she's in love in the city
Hurt pride long slide, try to hide in the city.

New day, cloud burst, real thirst in the city
Horns blare, people stare, gotta rush in the city
Sundown in the park and it's dark in the city
So cold, lost soul, needs a friend in the city.

She thought the lights in the buildings up high were so pretty
She couldn't see the twinkling of the eye in the city.

Hold on, hold fast
Stay tuned till the last
Night life brings its end
Daylight brings a friend.

Left her home, came to town, ran around in the city
Lost some dreams, found some scenes, lost and found in the city
Met some men, trusted them, she's in love in the city
So cold, lost hope, needs a friend in the city.

She thought the lights in the buildings up high were so pretty
She couldn't see the twinkling of the eye in the city.

Snow drift, wild wind
Long ago, loved it then
That was all in the past
Too bad, it couldn't last.

Hold on, hold fast
Stay tuned till the last
Night life brings its end
Daylight brings a friend.
