City Of Night - Pink Martini

Well the sun’s going down

With it’s 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
