What am I doin' here
In such a lonely place?
Birds fly below

I'm high up in my cage

Wide awake again

Or am I dreamin'?
Trains passing by
World's spinning 'round my head


Then I heard a sweet voice cry
Telling me, yeah it's gonna be alright


I just look at the skyline
A million lights are lookin' back at me

And when they shine
I see a place I know I'll find some peace
I just look at the skyline


I used to rush around
To keep busy in the day

Then we'd sit up and drink
We might find something new to say
No, I can't live this way...


But then I heard that sweet voice cry
Telling me, yeah it's gonna be alright


I just look at the skyline
A million lights are lookin' back at me

And when they shine
I see a place I know I'll find some peace
I just look at the skyline


I look at the skyline
A million lights are lookin' back at me

And when they shine
I see a place I know I'll find some peace
I just look at the skyline


What am I doin' here
In such a lonely place?
