Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
The bright array of city lights
As far as I can see
The great white way shines
through the night
For lonely girls like me
The dance halls, the nightclubs too
Their flashing signs invite
For a broken heart can lose itself
In the glow of city light s
Lights that say forget his name
in a glass of sherry wine.
Lights that are for other girls
or an empty heart like mine.
They paint a pretty picture
of a world that's gay and bright
But it's just a mask for loneliness
behind those city lights
Light s that say forget his love
in a different atmosphere,
lights that lure are nothing
but a masquerade for tears.
They paint a pretty picture,
but my arms can't hold them tight.
And I just can't say I love you
to a street of city lights.
Sing it right!
