Lyrics:

In the city where I'm from

There are lovers to the dawn

And you stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long



Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Oooh! Oooh!



In the city where I'm from

Lions in cages just for fun

But you will pace around your cage

And wait for night to come



In the city where I'm from

They shoot you down if you're wrong



But we don't stop to check the time

'Cause time keeps moving on and on and on



Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Oooh! Oooh!



I see you in another place

I expected a familiar face

The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constrains

Just ignore all that you see

The illusion of you and me

Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never go on



In the city where I'm from

There are lovers to the dawn

And you stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long



Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?



The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constrains



Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never go on
