City Lights Lyrics by Emblem3

Waking Up - EP

2016

[Verse 1]
Hold tight the future's bright
Pens in your hand so don't stop writing now
Writing now
It's easy to feel lost when you
Hit downtown with all these strangers round
Stangers around
[Pre-Chrous]
Look at the sky
(When you're alone)
Every night
(I'll leave my light on)
So you can see your way home
[Chrous]
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
Babe I know this one ain't what you've been dreaming
[Verse 2]
You keep hearing promises
That don't play out I'm sorry if I let you down
I let you down
I know what the heart can take
All I ask is you don't throw us away, throw us away
[Pre-Chrous]
Look at the sky
(When you're alone)
Every night
(I'll leave my light on)
So you can see your way home
[Chrous]
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
Cause babe I know this one
Ain't what you've been dreaming
Oh celebrities ain't rodeo
These dirty streets ain't paved with gold
But darling I hope you find
Those city lights (yeah yeah yeah)
Those city lights (yeah)
[Bridge]
Sorry babe but I just can't share you
Want you so bad babe I need you
Screaming out please don't go, please don't go
Please come home, please come home
[Chrous]
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
'Cause Babe I know this one ain't what you've been dreaming
Oh celebrities ain't rodeo
These dirty streets ain't paved with gold
But darling I hope you find
Those city lights
Hope you find'em
Hope you find'em
Yeah yeah
