Lyrics
City Light, strikes my eyes
and you know it's in my mind
no illumination, insanity
to a child of the 20th century, like you and me
City Lights, sightless eyes
there's no need for mind control
Open up, they're in my soul
and they're there for evermore
City Light
Light my eyes
You're so innocent, and I love you
I would save you if I could
but there's nothing I can do
save either me or you, cause
City Light
Light my eyes
City Light
Light my eyes
City Light
Light my eyes
