Well, we always seem to worry, Life's becoming such a flurry,
Don't you see that there's lights in the dark? Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.
Oh, the stars we've been told, Still our love is yours to behold, Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.
Oh, you say it's not the real world, Though it seems so real to me,
And I know that we'll never turn it back, Can you see what I see now?
I had a vision of festive days, She's like a decoy in the mist that hails out.
I sit in wonder at the sky, Watch the river flowing by,
Now it ends and we're here at the start, Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.
Oh, you say it's not the real world, Though it seems so real to me,
And I know that we'll never turn it back, Can you see what I see now?
I had a vision of festive days, She's like a decoy in the mist that hails out.
Don't break my chains, girl, Show me to the land,
Where people live together, And try to understand.
Don't break my chains.
