City Lights
City Lights: A Love Story Beyond the Skyline
Lyrics
I wanna show you something
I want to reveal something to you.
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, possibly to experience or feel something.
Sitting on the roof, what a marvellous view
Sitting on the roof, enjoying a wonderful view.
I'm not talking ‘bout the city lights,
The speaker isn't admiring the urban lights but rather focusing on the person they're with.
I'm talking ‘bout you
Expressing admiration or affection for the person.
It's getting pretty cold up here
It's becoming cold in the physical environment.
cnd the visibility is clear
The visibility is excellent, indicating a clear atmosphere.
I look in your eyes, and you look into mine
A moment of mutual gaze, expressing a connection.
cnd I feel like I'm in heaven
The feeling of immense happiness or contentment.
Oh your city lights are endless and bright
The beauty and abundance of urban lights are being admired.
I don't know what that means,
Uncertainty about the meaning of the city lights but knowing it brings joy.
But I know it makes you smile (Makes you smile)
The effect of the city lights brings a smile to the person.
This world's such an ugly place
Describing the world as unpleasant.
But when I look at you, and I see your face
The presence of the person makes the world more appealing.
The world doesn't seem so hum-drum anymore
The world seems more interesting or less dull when the person is around.
So please don't go, don't leave me on my own
Pleading for the person not to leave.
I don't wanna face this world without you
Fear of facing the world without the person.
Without you, without you, here with me
Emphasizing the desire for the person to stay.
Your starry eyes illuminate the midnight sky
The person's eyes are compared to stars, symbolizing their brightness.
cs we debate who loves the moment more, well
A discussion or debate about who loves the moment more, while the speaker affirms their love.
I love you that's for sure
Reiterating the love for the person.
I don't know what time it is,
Uncertainty about the time, not concerning the speaker.
cnd to be fair I couldn't care less
Not bothered by the passing of time.
We're gonna stay up all night
Commitment to staying awake throughout the night.
We're gonna watch the sun rise over the skyline
Planning to witness the sunrise together.
If your city lights break my heart I might just die
The fear of heartbreak caused by the city lights if the person leaves.
cnd if the stars fell out the sky,
Anxiety about drastic changes or unpredictable events.
I'd be worried for our lives
Concern for their safety if unexpected events occur.
One day we'll all be gone
Reflection on mortality and the transient nature of life.
Dust in the wind and the wind is strong
Realization of life's fleeting existence and its strength.
But our city lights remain
The endurance of city lights despite the transience of life.
Hey, hey, I won't go, I won't leave you on your own
Promise not to leave the person alone.
I don't wanna face this world without you
Fear of facing the world without the person.
Without you, without you, here with me
Repeated emphasis on the desire for the person to stay.
cre you ready?
Asking if the person is prepared for something.
Open your eyes.
Encouraging the person to open their eyes, possibly to witness something significant.
