Testo The City - Al Green
Testo della canzone The City (Al Green), tratta dall'album Al Green Explores Your Mind
I've seen the lights of a city
A great big city, a wonderful city
And the people standing all around
Standing on the ground and making a sound
I've been waiting for so long
I gotta stop, very soon my whole life will be gone, oh my
I can't make no time that way, yeah
To the great big city, oh, it's a wonderful city
Some people say that love ain't fair
Don't you ever care, around in a square
I might as well just not be there
My heart is in a spell, it's just lookin' sad
Oh, I've seen the lights now from so far, oh
I wanna get out and run from my car
I gotta make some time that way towards that
Great big city, I wanna go
To the beautiful city, the city, city
I can see that heaven not so far
Riding in my car, looking at a star
Won't you try to open up my heart
Love is waiting there, don't you think it's fair?
I ain't playing 'bout what I'm saying
Everybody, deep down in my heart I'm praying, hey
I got to make some time that way, oh, I tell ya
To the great big city, I wanna go, oh
To the wonderful city, beautiful, wonderful, marvelous
Yeah, I wanna go, I wanna go
Don't you want to go with me, yeah
Hey, come on, let me take you by the hand, oh I
I wanna take you to the wonderful city
