In the city where I'm from
There are lovers to the dawn
And you stayed up to see the sun
I couldn't wait that long
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?
Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Oooh! Oooh!
In the city where I'm from
Lions in cages just for fun
But you will pace around your cage
And wait for night to come
In the city where I'm from
They shoot you down if you're wrong
But we don't stop to check the time
'Cause time keeps moving on and on and on
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?
Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Oooh! Oooh!
I see you in another place
I expected a familiar face
The city joins us with hands of grace
Hands free there are no constrains
Just ignore all that you see
The illusion of you and me
Illusions come illusions go
And if I leave you'll never go on
In the city where I'm from
There are lovers to the dawn
And you stayed up to see the sun
I couldn't wait that long
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?
Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
The city joins us with hands of grace
Hands free there are no constrains
Illusions come illusions go
And if I leave you'll never go on
There are lovers to the dawn
And you stayed up to see the sun
I couldn't wait that long
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?
Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Oooh! Oooh!
In the city where I'm from
Lions in cages just for fun
But you will pace around your cage
And wait for night to come
In the city where I'm from
They shoot you down if you're wrong
But we don't stop to check the time
'Cause time keeps moving on and on and on
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?
Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?
Who's gonna get up after we're gone?
Oooh! Oooh!
