The City Sleeps Tonight

You know I was
Mesmerised by all your white lies
That's how it goes
Crossed my heart on our final goodbye
You tied me down when I needed to fly
I hope you know
You'll forever be my virtue my vice
I remember you
Dancing under city lights
We saw September through
But the timing wasn't right
God we tried
Still we lost our fight
I will dream of you
As the city sleeps tonight
As the city sleeps tonight
...
You know I was
Falling for all the things that you said
That's how it goes
I never thought you'd be something I'd regret
You tied me down when I needed to fly
I hope you know
You'll always be my virtue my vice
I remember you
Dancing under city lights
We saw September through
But the timing wasn't right
God we tried
Still we lost our fight
I will dream of you
As the city sleeps tonight
