Thurl Ravenscroft
City of Lights
[Verse 1]
Life is like a journey
On a road that's within
Head says you should stay
But your heart says to begin
So you go
But you don't wanna go
[Verse 2]
Any life worth living
Isn't life just filled with ease
You just stay forgiving
Through the forest and the trees
And you'll go
Just where you wanna go
[Chorus]
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
What a ride to the city
The city of light
[Verse 3]
Light shines like a diamond
In the city at night
When that diamond shines
You know that everything's alright
But you know
We got a way to go
[Verse 4]
Let us meet the master
We don't want to make him wait
You just keep a-knocking
He will open up the gate
To that city of light
[Bridge]
Master is a man with a plan I can understand
Master is a man of great reflection
Master is a man who lays his hand across the land
Master is a man of our affection
[Chorus]
Time fly by in the city of light
Time stands still in the country
There's no time for a fuss and a fight
As we travel the land
And I'd be satisfied
Just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
What a ride to the city
The city of light
