City sunset stirs the heart Long theatrical shadows
Stalk the golden streets While up high the skyscraper windows
Bravely blaze tender and light All day long the dull routine
Strips the world of its colour Even pretty girls seem dull
With an unemotional pallor Till sunset sets us all free
Then you and I stroll beneath The gorgeous sky
As day changes make up for night She dyes her clouds red
And goes proudly to bed The gang wanders off to the bars
While the lovers discover the stars And the sad man in the world
Shines down upon this madness That is ours
City sunset stirs the heart Long theatrical shadows
Stalk the golden streets While up high the skyscraper windows
Bravely blaze tender and light And the sad man in the world
And the sad man in the world Shines down upon this madness
That is ours
City sunset stirs the heart Long theatrical shadows
