JOURNEY

- Lights Lyrics

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Do I wanna be there in my city?

Oh, oo, oh
Ohh, oo, ohh
Oh, oo, oh

So you think you're lonely
Well my friend I'm lonely too
I wanna get back to my city by the bay

Ohh, ohh
Oh, oo, oh

It's sad, oh there's been mornings
Out on the road without you
Without your charms

Oh, oo, oh
My, my, my
My, my, my
Ohh, ohh
Oh, oo, oh

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Do I wanna be there in my city?

(Oh, oo, oh)
Ohh, oo, oh
Oh, oh, oh

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Do I wanna be there in my city?

Oh, oo, oh
Ohh, oo, oh
Oh, oh, oh
(Hmm)
Ohh, oo, oh
Oh, oh, oh
