Lyrics
Verse One
Looking out on the city as darkness falls
Crowded streets become lonesome Boulevards
Misty shadows appear in the shimmering light
As echoes of the evening fade into the night
Chorus
Silent city sidewalks seem somewhat forlorn
There's a strange kind of beauty when nobody's home
Two lovers by the fountain on a clear winter's night
Under glistening rooftops caressed by starlight
One last gentle kiss as he bids her adieu
Then softly he whispers, I love you
Bridge
A cool wind whistles down forsaken avenues
Like a ghost in the distance he fades slowly from view
His love for his sweetheart, like a blanket of gold
Keeps him warm as he waits for their dreams to unfold
Chorus
Silent city sidewalks seem a little forlorn
There's a strange kind of beauty when nobody's home
Two lovers by the fountain on a clear winter's night
Under glistening rooftops caressed by starlight
One last gentle kiss as he bids her adieu
Then softly he whispers, I love you.
