A bright aray of city lights as far as I can see,

The great white wave shines through the night for lonely guys like me.

The caberays and honky tonks there flashing signs invite,

A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights.
E A
Lights that say forget her name and a glass of cherri wine,
E A
Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine.

They paint a pretty picture of a world thats gay and brite,

But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights.

The world was dark and god made stars to brighten up the night,

But god who put the stars above I don't believe made those lights.

For it's just a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right.

Just a place to run away and hide behind those city lights.

Lights that say forget her love in a diffrent atmosphere,

Lights that lure are nothing but a maskeray for tears.
