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 young hearts

The scene before us imparts.

What wondrous city lights!
