Lyrics of The City Sleeps by Alice Phoebe Lou
verse
Baby, have you seen those leaves on the ground
At first they shone from the pavement in gold red and brown
Now they've been trampled on and ridden over
And they're just sludge lying around
And I think it's time to leave this town
chorus
The trees whisper secrets of summer's love affairs
Of the carelessness tomfoolery that happened everywhere
But as the doors close
The wind blows
The city sleeps
And the sky weeps
And I know, I know
I know it's time to leave this town
Oh no, you won't see me hanging around
verse
But babe, I'll be back
When sun starts to seep through the leaves
When I can sing you a song
As you sing along
On these magic Berlin streets
outro
With our night riding
Midnight gliding
Morning dancing
Pavement prancing
You know, oh you know
You know I'll be back to live this town
Oh, you know I'll be back to love this town
Writer(s): Alice Phoebe Lou
