Life in the city can be land of the lonely
Who's gonna know you when you're lost in the crowd
Everyone's looking after their one and only
Everyone's frightened of talking out loud, they say
You're one of the lonely people
Cause nobody knows your name now
Don't smile at people or they'll tell you your crazy
Be nice to no one or they'll say you're a fool
Look to the ground all the time that you're walking
Stick to yourself, don't you know that's the rules, they say
You're one of the lonely people
Cause nobody knows your name now
Across the street is an open door
There's a man standing out of the rain
He turns his collar to the wind
And you know you'll never see him
You know you'll never see him again
He's one of the lonely people
Cause nobody knows his name now
Say what you like I think you're on in a million
There's nobody like you, you're a class of you're own
The city's the place that we've all gotta live in
If we think of each other we can make it our home
Everyone's fighting for a way to survive
Nobody listens to a word that we say
There's more to life than just staying alive
We can make it, we can make it all day
I'll show you the way
And you'll find
Life in the city's okay
