A valley of lights
twinkling orange and white
brighten the night
with their silent song
Skyscrapers loom high
almost to puncture the sky
and a stranger might
cry for all it's beauty
But only one star
can shine through from afar
and leaves only one scar
in the brown night's purity
When you come into view
my heart beats anew
with all the love I have for you
my favorite city

A valley of lights
twinkling orange and white
brighten the night
with their silent song
Skyscrapers loom high
almost to puncture the sky
and a stranger might
cry for all it's beauty
But only one star
can shine through from afar
and leaves only one scar
in the brown night's purity
When you come into view
my heart beats anew
with all the love I have for you
my favorite city
