City lights, city lights -

City lights, city lights -

Look at all the city lights!

Some are red, some are blue -

Some light up a roof -

Such are our summer nights.

A therapeutic wind blows

As I dare to look below

At the freeway steadily

Moving as an artery

By the bright headlight glow.

From such a great height

In the lateness of the night -

A thrill to my young heart

I feel before we must part.

What wondrous city lights!
