Hold tight, the future's bright
Pens in your hand so don't stop writing now
Writing now
It's easy to feel lost
When you hit downtown with all these strangers round
Strangers around
Look at the sky
When you're all alone
Every night
I'll leave my light on
So you can see your way home
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
Babe I know this one ain't what you've been dreaming
You keep hearing promises
That don't play out, I'm sorry if I let you down
I let you down
I know what the heart can take
All I ask is you don't throw us away
Throw us away
Look at the sky
When you're all alone
Every night
I'll leave my light on
So you can see the way home
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
Cause babe I know this one ain't what you've been dreaming
Ohh
Celebrities ain't all rodeo
These dirty streets ain't paved with gold
But darling I hope you find
Those city lights (yeah yeah yeah)
Those city lights (yeah)
Sorry babe but I just can't share you
Want you so bad babe I need you
Screaming out please don't go, please don't go
Please come home, please come home
Sorry babe but I just can't share you
Want you so bad babe I need you
Screaming out please don't go, please don't go (please don't go)
Please come home, please come home
Caught up in those pretty city lights
Wishing on a star for your direction
Thinking of a new and different life
Cause babe I know this one ain't what you've been dreaming
Ohh
Celebrities ain't all rodeo
These dirty streets ain't paved with gold
But darling I hope you find
Those city lights (yeah yeah yeah)
Those city lights (yeah)
Those city lights
Hope you find em
Hope you find em
Yeah
