When the sky was filled with dawn and all the fools had gone
Back to homes and back to sleep
While they dreamed they filled the streets
With a silence that revealed them to me
Alone in a big old city
Jester for the court and horses for the king
They've got everything there
An anchor and a ship where
I had once been lost at sea
Alone in a big old city
Billboards and TV taught me everything I need
To climb aboard that ship and act like I'm a real man
And go back home and back to sleep
And never ever ever dream
Alone in a big old city
