City Of Dreams Lyrics - Talking Heads

Near where you are standing, the dinosaurs did a dance 

The Indians told a story how it has come to pass 

The Indians had a legend, the Spaniards lived for gold 

White men came and killed them, but they haven't really gone 

We live in the city of dreams 

We drive on this highway of fire 

Should we awake to find it gone 

Remember this, our favorite town 

From Germany and Europe and southern U.S.A. 

They made this little town here that we live in to this day 

The children of the white man saw Indians on TV 

And heard about the legend, how their city was a dream

We live in the city of dreams 

We drive on this highway of fire 

Should we awake and find it gone 

Remember this, our favorite town 

The Civil War is over, and World War I and II 

If we can live together, the dream, it might come true 

Underneath the concrete, the dream is still alive 

A hundred million lifetimes, a world that never dies

We live in the city of dreams 

We drive on this highway of fire 

Should we awake and find it gone 

Remember this, our favorite town 

We live in the city of dreams 

We drive on this highway of fire 

Should we awake and find it gone 

Remember this, our favorite town
