lyrics

We could take a ride if we wanted to
drive around the city look for something new
cause I know every minute the city is born again
we could wind up on a roof at night
look up at the sky till the morning light
and I know soon enough we'll be talking bout the way back when
blink and you might miss your night go from zero to ten
the city will never sleep again

meet me out where the lights are bright
monday blues on a sunday night
cause I know we might not be back this way again
we lost our muse on the magic mile
but we can find it on the fm dial
cause I know we're standing on the shoulders of better men
blink and you might miss your night go from zero to ten
the city will never sleep again

a small fish in the deep blue sea
you're not sure if it's the place to be
and I know you've never been one to wade into the deeper end
but stick your head out from the underground
the traffic's fine if you avoid downtown
but I know that's where there's something new waiting round every bend
blink and you might miss your night go from zero to ten
the city will never sleep again
you still don't know if you'll be back this way or when
this city will never sleep again
you'll find your way but you don't have a dime to spend
the city will never sleep again
the heat is rising almost reached a hundred and ten
the city will never sleep again
