City

From the Quicksilver Metaweb.

city

• Coming through a cloud
• You're looking at me from above
• And I'm a revelation spreading out before your eyes
• And you find me beautiful and irresistible
• A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size
• And you feel a strange attraction
• The air is vibrant and electrified
• Welcome to me
• Here I am

• My arms are oh so open wide

• Somewhere in the middle of the neverending noise

• There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats
• And a million voices blend into a single voice
• And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets
• People come and take their chances
• Sometimes you win sometimes you lose a lot

• Come make your own contribution to this melting pot

• I'm the street you walk

• The language you talk
• I am the city
• The skyline is me and the energy
• I am the city
• The famous hotels and the cocktail bars
• And the funny spells
• And the turmoil the cars and the people
• The air that you're breathing is me

• Yes I am the city you let me be

• People feed me with their lives I am a hungry soul

• And they all worship me and pay their homage day and night
• Every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet
• But come the night they will be dancing in the neon light
• Dazzled by the crazy magic
• They're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf

• And in the wind if you listen hard you'll hear me laugh

• I'm the street you walk

• The language you talk
• I am the city
• The skyline is me and the energy
• I am the city
• The famous hotels and the cocktail bars
• And the funny spells
• And the turmoil the cars and the people
• The parks and the squares that you see
• All the sounds that you hear
• And the air that you're breathing is me

• Yes I am the city you let me be

• I am the city

• You let me be

• I am the city

• The famous hotels and the cocktail bars

• And the funny spells
• And the turmoil the cars and the people

• The air that you're breathing is me
