"Midnight City" lyrics

"Midnight City"

There's a cold wind blows through every flame
There's a sunny day in the pouring rain
But everyone knows the two are more or less the same
And every year you dwell upon
A postcard with no reference on
Sent from a town where no one even knows your name
Or knows your face

There's a long way to go
There's a long long way to go
Before you know the answers

Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before

You see the girl who sold her dreams
To be a teenage bride and a dancing queen
But nobody cares to know how her story ends
You say her name but she soon forgets
So she concentrates on her own regret
Now she's walking away, you'll never see her face again
No matter when

There's a long way to go
There's a long long way to go
Before you find the reasons

Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Seen before

Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Oh tonight the stars are pretty
Remind me of a midnight city sky
That I've never seen before
Seen before

There's a cold wind blows through every flame
There's a sunny day in the pouring rain
But everyone knows the two are more or less the same
