City of Lovers - Orchestra & Donald Pippin

Where did we go wrong? Will there be a future to look back from? Feels like God is long gone From the creatures who created him We could give it all away This machinery of violence Still we gather for a feast of praise To the devouring mouth of war This is a fire This is a revelation Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Let's run all the red lights Make no promises Live like young lovers Who've never known heartache Between the dark and dawn Kings are killing people in the streets Their ghosts are left to walk on Through the nightmares of these bitter men Golden towers climb towards the sky A sparkling palace of sin (Palace of sin) And still we act so surprised (So surprised) That we are so hollow (So hollow) This is a fire This is a revelation Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Let's run all the red lights Make no promises Live like young lovers Who've never known heartache, known heartache Standing on your own While you struggle to survive Left you standing all alone While you struggle to survive This is a fire This is a revelation Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Fade away Fade away

I tried to talk to my baby I said no no no no baby Please don't cry No no no baby please 'Cause all of the leaves come down Every time babies cry All of the leaves come down I put my arms around my baby I said hush hush hush hush Baby sleep tight now Hush hush hush baby sleep 'Cause all of the birds start to sing Every time babies dream All of the birds start to sing Nobody wants to see Lovers of today happy So assumed they're going to part Nobody wants to be with someone So afraid they'll be left with A broken heart I kissed the eyes of my baby I said dream dream dream dream Baby all night long Dream dream dream all the night 'Cause all of the stars in the skies Twinkle on baby's eyes All of the stars in the skies I tried to talk to you baby No no No I'll never feel Like a man in a man's world
