City Lights & Traffic Sounds

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
The sky was clouded gray
Raindrops fell upon his face
Seven years he threw away
When he broke his dear love's heart

[Refrain 1]
And it shouldn't end this way;
His foolish heart, it went astray
Was it something he could say?
"You'll never take away her pain."

[Verse 2]
The city lights and traffic sounds;
People scurry 'cross the ground
He caught her eye at the next light;
Tears were far too strong to fight

[Refrain 2]
'Cause she said, "What are you doing here?"
The moment I have long since feared
(Oh) "I'm not the girl you left behind
She's been gone for quite for some time."

[Refrain 3]
You could see it in her eyes:
She had run out of tears to cry
Now she turned and walked away;
Seven years gone to waste
