Somewhere

Sometimes the sky here is dark not to pretty I can see the lights from the distant city Somewhere there is a candle burning Left out on a shelf in the darkest night Sometimes we all feel we get forgotten And our love can vanish in the night And I know there is always a tomorrow And I know the earth is still turning But I can only follow my own footsteps As the dark night in the moonlight feels hollow But I can see the light from all the cities And I know there is place for me tonight Sometimes the sun is not here very often And the sky feels low, heavy and very tight I wish somehow the mood could soften As I watch how we slip away into the night I know no one will not ever be forgotten I have my memories they are burning Beneath my feet the earth is still turning It’s so hard for me to draw the curtain It’s hard for me to move my pencil right But I must keep myself from hurting I hope someday you’ll come to the city Where everything is all aglow and bright There is a rainbow in every streetlight Everything else turned black and white I will always love life in the city That is where you will always find me If you’re looking you’ll find me in the city Somewhere I am burning big and bright And it was love that lit the candle To keep away the dark when I’m alone at night,
