RJ Tessier - City Lights Lyrics

City lights, I don't think you're gonna do it for me tonight
There's a stable with a maple and she's the warmest of heart's delight
The horizon calls for us
Taxi man, can you lend a hand? I think I lost my way
The street names change but the scenery stays the same
Can almost see a field out there
Oh, how I long for some fresh air
Darling, at night the city can shine so bright
But it doesn't come close to your smile that brings the light
That's where I'd rather be
Slow days in your company
I'll take a hoot and a holler over a suit and a collar
I'll take a dog with land over the pleasing and the man
And despite the sights and obscene heights
Oh, city lights, I don't think you're gonna do it for me tonight
I'll go where the hills roll over
We're getting old, don't feel like getting older
Where the plains touch the trees
Where you get healed by the breeze
Where I'll take my girl and we'll make our way in the world
I'll take a hoot and a holler over a suit and a collar
I'll take a dog with land over the pleasing and the man
And despite the sights and obscene heights
Oh, city lights, I don't think you're gonna do it for me tonight
