| Coming through a cloud you’re looking at me from above
|
| And I’m a revelation spreading out before your eyes
|
| And you find me beautiful and irresistible
|
| A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size
|
| And you feel a strange attraction
|
| The air is vibrant and electrified
|
| Welcome to me, here I am, my arms are open wide
|
| Somewhere in the middle of the never-ending noise
|
| There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats
|
| And a million voices blend into a single voice
|
| And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets
|
| People come and take their chances
|
| Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose a lot
|
| Come, make your own contribution to this melting pot
|
| I’m the street you walk, the language you talk
|
| I am the city
|
| The skyline is me and the energy
|
| I am the city
|
| The famous hotels and the cocktail bars
|
| And the funny smells and the turmoil of cars
|
| And the people, the air that you’re breathing is me
|
| Yes, I am the city, you let me be
|
| People feed me with their lives, I am a hungry soul
|
| And they all worship me and pay their homage day and night
|
| Every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet
|
| But come the night they will be dancing in the neon light
|
| Dazzled by the crazy magic
|
| They’re grabbing pieces of the fatted calf
|
| And in the wind, if you listen hard you’ll hear me laugh
|
| I’m the street you walk, the language you talk
|
| I am the city
|
| The skyline is me and the energy
|
| I am the city
|
| The famous hotels and the cocktail bars
|
| And the funny smells and the turmoil of cars
|
| And the people, the parks and the squares that you see
|
| All the sounds that you hear and the air that you’re breathing is me
|
| Yes, I am the city, you let me be
|
| I am the city
|
| You let me be
|
| I am the city
|
| The famous hotels and the cocktail bars
|
| And the funny smells and the turmoil of cars
|
| And the people, the air that you’re breathing is me
|
| Coming through a cloud, you’re looking at me from above
|
| And I’m a revelation spreading out before your eyes
|
| I’m the street you walk, the language you talk
|
| I am the city
|
| Yes, I am the city, you let me be
|
| And you find me beautiful and irresistible
|
| A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size
|
| The skyline is me and the energy
|
| I am the city
|
| You let me be
|
