Well the sun’s going down   With its deep amber light   Embracing the town as we fall into night   To the silvery sound as the birds fly away    Getting ready for love   Getting out of the day      It is the city of night   It is the city if night   Leave the worries of day behind    And dream a new dream tonight      All the lands are a glow   All the lids painted red   And you wish you could take   That last thing you said   Well the night is a drum   Singing songs of delight   But when dawn comes along   Love is lost in the light      But in the city of night   Oh, in the city of night   Leave the troubles of day behind    And dream a new dream tonight
