City Lights
And the city lights burn,
from night till morn,
and the city lights yearn,
to be reborn each night.
Snuffed out by the daylight.
Will I see you,
or will I search in vain?
In the city the lights always remain,
at night.
Snuffed out by the daylight.
The city light my companion,
the only one that stays with me.
true it’s not a lover but we have a better history.
For city light never leaves you in the night.
And city lights are never jealous of the daylight.
It’s a hideous perfection,
with a darkening complexion.
But at least it adds no secrets to the Mystery.
Always a better present than a history.
