From
City to City (1978) by
Gerry Rafferty
Island - 5:04
Wake up my love, the sun is shinin??™ out that blue sky up above
It??™s a brand new day, let??™s walk outside and let that breeze blow all our cares away.
You know that way back there in that city life
We??™ve been strangers for so long
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.
So long ago (yeah), we had a love so warm and bright when we had just begun
That was my last dream, since then I??™ve watched the rest crumble one by one.
Since we??™ve been on this island yeah it??™s felt so right
It??™s gettin??™ closer now everyday
Now that I feel like I know you again
I want to stay.
(sha la la sha la la)
You know that on my own I don??™t make it alone
I need someone who needs me
I only know that wherever you are
I want to be.
But from now on, we won??™t worry about a thing, yeah the past is gone
This is our last day (yeah), we??™re gonna make sweet love before we sail away.
(fade)
