Title:
“Beneath the City Lights”
Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am G C F
Underneath the city lights, we’re lost in the crowd,
Am G C F
Running from the echoes, our desires so loud.
Am G C F
Strangers in the shadows, veiled behind the night,
Am G C F
Awaiting the dawn, in the city’s twilight.
(Chorus)
Dm Am C G
Shining so bright, beneath the city lights,
Dm Am C G
We find our fight, our hearts take flight.
(Verse 2)
Am G C F
Bridges over troubled water, we’re treading the line,
Am G C F
Fearing the fall, yet the heights we climb.
Am G C F
Chasing after midnight, under the starlight’s gaze,
Am G C F
In the city’s embrace, we’re caught in a daze.
(Chorus)
Dm Am C G
Lost in the sight, beneath the city lights,
Dm Am C G
Our dreams ignite, in the depth of the night.
