I'm heading towards a center and all my memories blur
We all come for the strangers; who knows who we once were
And I'm tired of the waiting
For the place that puts me right
Big city lights
I used to be a loner, now I'm always at your door
Craving to be held onto, wanting even more
When the road won't tell its secrets
I push on through the night to those
Big city lights
Motel rooms scatter round the edges lying low
We've been driving for hours, but there's still no place to go
Then it rises from the dark
And pulls me in tight
Big city lights
What was hiding, what was plain
Make it new again
Big city lights
