City Lights Lyrics

by The Statler Brothers

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 cabaretes 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

[ fiddle ]

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 athmosphere

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
