NAKED CITY
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1a](2x)
[Rhythm Fig. 2](2x)
All the victims have turned to stone, no one is happy, they're all alone
I'd sacrifice my social position tonight
In New York, millionaires, and lonely people with lonely stares
I'm not lookin' for love and I'm lost in this night
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1a]
In the naked city (in the city) there are ten million stories (naked city)
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b]
I'm not lookin' for pity (in the city) in this naked city (naked city)
[Rhythm Fig. 2](2x)
Street vampires in the night, young lovers and love at first sight
This is my flesh and my fantasy
Older women with younger men, I've got a feelin' I'm in trouble again
But I've got to live my destiny
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1a]
In the naked city (in the city) it's a race with the devil (naked city)
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b]
All the pain and the sorrow (in the city) is there more tomorrow (naked city)
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b]w/[Riff. 1 w/end.1]
In the naked, naked city (in the city) naked city
[Solo] w/[Rhythm Fig. 3]
[Rhythm Fig. 4]
Lonely people lookin' for someone, lonely people goin' their way
Lonely people lookin' for something, lonely people goin' their way
[Rhythm Fig. 2] w/[Rhythm Fig. 2a]
In New York, millionaires, lonely people with lonely stares
I'm not lookin' for love and I'm lost in this night
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b]
In the naked city, there are ten million stories
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b]
I'm not lookin' for pity in this naked city
[Rhythm Fig. 1] w/[Rhythm Fig. 1b](2x) w/[Riff. 1]
In the naked, naked city (in the city), it's a race with the devil (naked city)
All the pain and the sorrow (in the city) is there more tomorrow (naked city)
