White City

White city/run your mouth tonight
White city/was it all for show
Cause everyone's goin'
Everyone's goin' home
So give it up softly
Give it up as you go
To white city
Cause we don't need/a lullabye
It's time for me/to say goodbye
I've got to leave and go make good/so
How long should i wait?
How long should i wait?
How long should i wait?
On her wings/of love
In white city
White city/light the path to love
White city/show me how to go
Cause we don't need/an alibi
It's time for me/to say goodnight
I've got to leave/as if i should/so
How long should i wait?
How long should i wait?
How long should i wait?
On the wings/of her love
In white city
