City of Starlight

歌詞

The city lights are a river, flowing out of view. My taxi's in a hurry, painting the streets in blue. Raindrops hit the window, a pattern that I trace. But for the first time, I don't feel lost in this big, empty space. I used to pull the curtains and hide from the neon glow. Now I'm rolling the window down and letting the evening flow. The air is cool and a new beat is in my head. I'm leaving all the worries of yesterday unsaid. The sound becomes powerful with lush female vocal harmonies and layered ad-libs. Oh, this is my neon dreamscape, a symphony in the dark. I'm singing out my anthem, leaving a brand new mark. With every flash of lightning and every car that goes by, I'm looking at the city with new hope in my eye. This is my city of starlight, a beautiful, dazzling scene, Yeah, this is my moment, a feeling I've never known or seen. The music remains high, the vocals are confident, with a groovy bassline. The taxi stops, the doors swing wide, I step into the haze. The music in my headphones is the soundtrack to these days. I'm walking on the sidewalk, with a rhythm in my step. Every step is a new story, a promise that I've kept. The music softens, focusing on emotional vocals. No turning back from here, no shadows to chase me down. This is my future, this is my new found town. The buildings touch the heavens, the stars seem so close now. I'm making a promise to myself, a silent, joyful vow. The beat slowly fades out, leaving a single repeating synth melody. The vocals are sparse and dreamy. My neon dreamscape... The city lights are shining brighter now. This starlight is a promise... Yeah... a promise...
