City Of Lights Paroles

I place my bets
Trading with stranger in silhouette

There's a sadness
There's a joy
There's a place
There's a song that will never die
Forever

I drink your health, son of the earth
Passing ships in the modern death
We're all still fired
Old emotions still burn inside
On solid ground, round the mother tongue
A tower of hope, a joyful sound
You take your time
A hand of aces in a pack of lies

(Chorus)
In this empire of ache and rhyme
Lovers and best friends are running blind
I grasp your hand
Is this the only world I understand

(Chorus)
