City Streets Lyrics - City Streets - Carole King

CITY STREETS 

by Carole King 

River wind is icy 

Chills run through my bones 

Tides of life are ebbing out 

Between the cobblestones 

The streets are on fire 

With the burning sunrise 

And over the water I look in vain 

For love in someone's eyes

CHORUS: 

Oh, City streets 

The stories that they tell 

Oh, City streets 

They can be heaven, they can be hell 

Winter colored morning 

Gray and dirty brown 

Reflecting the mood I'm in 

Despair is all around 

I long for sweet oblivion 

To take me from my pain 

Maybe bring me dreams of hope and faith 

So, I can break this chain 

CHORUS 

Photos 

Lovers with their arms entwined 

Silhouettes against the light 

A warm bed is waiting as they head home 

After staying up all night 

For them the city is magic 

That's all they've ever known 

I wish I could find the magic 

But I'm scared and I'm feeling so alone 

CHORUS 

Oh, City streets, the stories thay have known 

iOh City Streets, City Streets, The City Streets
