In The City

Well, it's a close one, a real close one But no-one gets hurt and she's got twice the fun Now they kiss in the rain And did someone call out someone's name From a white cadillac on a wide wind To her white dress across the great divide Into the warm moonlight And she's been reading Bukowski for days Leans over, spits her name in my face And says "Well, now you know how it feels" Well, now you know how it feels And I was Lookin' for you Lookin' for you Lookin' for you in the city last night And the boys in the band steal a kiss from the mystery of the night 11: 59 to zero, little blonde hair in jeans, holds it tight Turns on the heat and starts to fight, sayin' "that's my man" Well, the myth of love must have been there The spirit of possession was there And the boys are at the bar Yeah, they're mixing up their medicines The girls are on their mobiles trying to get reception and Johnny's shadow's getting long but he keeps on singing His shadow's getting long but he keeps on singing But I was Lookin' for you Lookin' for you Lookin' for you in the city last night And people so strange People so strange People just keep talkin' in the city night Now take off your shades and scroll down to number nine You're living on the guest list, up against the meat rack Head back, hand out, it's getting loud in here Think you're gonna have to shout And she's tearing off her clothes He's mixing his drinks all well Streets divide them It's an empire of signs That honey says she can read It looks like trouble It tastes like chocolate if you want it It looks like trouble But it tastes like chocolate if you want it Still I was Lookin' for you Lookin' for you Lookin' for you in the city last night And people so strange People so strange People get so ugly in the citylight And I was lookin' for you Yeah, I was lookin' for you Yeah, I was lookin' for you in the city last night And I was lookin' for you Yeah, I was lookin' for you Yeah, I was lookin' for you in the city last night It was alright, alright Alright, alright Was alright, alright Was alright, alright Say my name, alright It's alright, alright It's alright It's alright Kiss and go Kiss ang go
