Last train disappears from view
When it's over what can you do
It's a little bit more than broken this heart

It's a little bit more than broken this heart
Ooh, sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes, do you know what I mean
Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes

Madonna and child in the city square

A thousand people who love to stare

It's a little bit more than broken this heart

It's a little bit more than broken
But you never break apart


Sunrise
In the city of dreams
Sometimes, do you know what I mean

Sunrise
In the city of dreams
Sometimes


A rock and a hard place
She tired of getting nowhere

She tired of being erased
By casual indifference
Her life shut in her face


She gotta be muscle
She gotta be muscle


Refused to give into her past
To start anew is now her task

That man was just a boy you see
But she's a woman with responsibility
16 and a half with a baby and a rattle

She shed a lot of tears but now she's gonna battle
As for easing her pain in a similar vein
For that's another bad move

Won't do that again
Got a little bit of help
Got to be enough

From welfare and some people with the charity stuff
And though its hard she's started steady
And she'd going back to school

Some of her friends they say
"She's just a fool"
They say "she doesn't stand a chance

Life is just a crock"
They tell her "give it up"
But man, the girl is tough


Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes, do you know what I mean
Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes, do you know what I mean
Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes, do you know what I mean
Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes, do you know what I mean
Sunrise
In the city of dreams

Sometimes [fade]
