Night in the City

Lyrics

Standin' at the airport, lookin' down the strip
 She was dryin' her eyes, she was bitin' her lip
 Seven-four-seven just left from Gate Eleven
 And there's no turnin' 'round 'cause it's just leavin' the ground
 And gettin' higher, higher
 Standin' at the dock-side, lookin' out to sea,
 When I saw her, but she did not see me
 There she stood with no hope because she'd missed the boat
 And as her dreams sailed away, she headed back for the day
 Back to the city, city
 Night in the city
 Madness at midnight
 Night in the city drivin' you insane
 
 In the city
 ♪
 In the city, city
 Night in the city
 Madness at midnight
 Night in the city drivin' you insane
 ♪
 I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place
 I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
 Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
 I just can't take anymore, I'm goin' in through the door
 Into the city, city
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
 Drivin' you insane
 ♪
 Night in the city
 Madness at midnight
 Night in the city drivin' you insane
 Drivin' you insane
 Drivin' you insane
