Light up light up
|
Light up your lazy blue eyes
|
Moon's up nights up
|
Taking the town by surprise
|
Night time night time
|
Day left an hour ago
|
City light time
|
Must you get ready so slow
|
There are places to come from and places to go
|
|
Night in the city looks pretty to me
|
Night in the city looks fine
|
Music comes spilling out into the street
|
Colors go flashing in time
|
|
Take off take off
|
Take off your stay-at-home shoes
|
Break off shake off
|
Chase off those stay-at-home blues
|
Stairway stairway
|
Down to the crowds in the street
|
They go their way
|
Looking for faces to greet
|
But we run on laughing with no one to meet
|
|
Night in the city looks pretty to me
|
Night in the city looks fine
|
Music comes spilling out into the street
|
Colors go waltzing in time
|
