City of Love

Sometimes the shapes of things
Seduce your soul right in
And then you do it all again

Sometimes the face of fate
Is hard and comes so late
You never can procrastinate

In your sleep, you can feel a kind of sinking {yes, you can)
In the deep, you just can't see the sun for the lights
Yes, in your daze, you can't stop, you can't stop yourself from thinking
About the ways you could get out of the night
But you're caught, you're caught in the city of love

Sometimes the ghosts disperse (oh yeah)
Then they come back much worse (ooh yes they do)
Lost in a drifting universe

In the end you can hear the trumpets playing
'Round the bend where the river, the river turns into falls
In the flames, oh, you can hear, you can see the people praying
There's no escape, there's no way, there's no way out at all
When you're caught, oh in the city of love, in the city of love
