City of Dreams

歌詞

From the top of the towers You could see past the narrows Past our lady of the harbor To the broad, open sea See the curve of the earth On the vast, blue horizon From the world's greatest city In the land of the free All the brave men and women that you never would notice From the precincts and fire halls The first on the scene Storming into the buildings On the side of the angels They were gone in an instant In the belly of the beast We are children of slavery children of immigrants Remnants of tribes and their tired refugees As the walls tumble down We are stronger together Stronger than we ever knew we could be As strong as that statue that stands for the promise Of liberty here in this city of dreams Liberty here in this city of dreams All the flags on front porches And banners of unity Spanning the bridges From the top of the fence As we heal up the wounds And take care of each other There?s more love in this nation Than hate and revenge CHORUS ................................ .............. ©2003 David Wilcox, all rights reserved
