Big Town lyrics

I discovered a big town

On the crest of a wave

Throwing money at strangers

Taking candy from babes

Shaking hands in a big top

As the rain came down

I thought it would not stop

Sending letters to Paris

From the empire state

Taking pictures from the top

There's a lot of things

For you to do

There's a lot of dreams

That won't come true

I grew up in a big town

The lessons were not hard to learn

If you want them to love you

Then you must not love them in return

Spent the night at a party

Where I drank so much

I fell under your spell

Eight o'clock in the morning

And the daylight makes me

Look and feel like hell

There's a lot of things

For you to do

There's a lot of dreams

That won't come true

There's a lot of things

For you to do

There's a lot of dreams

That won't come true

When you live in a big town

There are sights and sounds

That make you want to cry

When you live in a big town

There are sights and sounds

That make you want to cry

When you live in a big town

There are sights and sounds

That make you want to cry

When you live in a big town

There are sights and sounds

That make you want to cry
