What am I doing here
In such a lonely place?
Birds fly below
I'm high up in my cage

Wide awake again
Or am I dreaming?
Trains passing by
World 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 looking 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 did 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 looking 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 looking 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 doing here
In such a lonely place?
