[Intro]
[Verse 1]
She walks alone through empty streets
Lights from neon signs reflect her tears
Dreams she had fade away each day
Her heart is cold, she's lost her way
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, why can't you see what you're doing to me?
Each lonely night, I'm longing for your company
[Chorus]
(Lead Vocals)
In this big city where dreams die
Alone again, I'll try not to cry
(Choir)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
[Synth loss]
[Verse 2]
Memories haunt her every step
Shadows remind her of what's left
Silent whispers fill the air
Echoes of laughter, now they're rare
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, why won't you come back to me?
These lonely nights are killing me silently
[Chorus]
(Lead Vocals)
In this big city where dreams die
Alone again, I'll try not to cry
(Choir)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
[Bridge]
(Synths build-up with soft male lead singing melodically over it)
Night falls down, the city's asleep
But she's awake, still hoping you'll keep
Your promise made, those words unspoken
Now she's broken, without a token
[Final Chorus]
(Lead Vocals)
In this big city where dreams die
Alone again, I'll try not to cry
(Choir)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
[Outro]
(Choir fades out softly repeating)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
