City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head) 00:17

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead) 00:21

Up above us of sight and far away 00:25

In our dreams we fly away to follow 00:28

Do you hear what I hear? 00:35

There's a sound in the night 00:39

Do you see what I see? 00:43

As we turn down the light 00:47

We don't need anybody here at all 00:50

They just get in our way 00:56

In my dream I am the one you call 01:00

Slowly we're dancing away 01:04

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead) 01:13

Up above us of sight and far away 01:17

In our dreams we fly away to follow 01:19

Do you hear what I hear? 01:27

Is it all in my mind? 01:30

Do you see what I see? 01:35

As we leave them behind 01:38

Far below people dancing all around 01:43

I can hear you call 01:48

Just one voice rising up above the sound 01:51

And into my dream you can fall 01:55

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head) 02:00

Lyrics:

[English]

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow

Do you hear what I hear?

There's a sound in the night

Do you see what I see?

As we turn down the light

We don't need anybody here at all

They just get in our way

In my dream I am the one you call

Slowly we're dancing away

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow

Do you hear what I hear?

Is it all in my mind?

Do you see what I see?

As we leave them behind

Far below people dancing all around

I can hear you call

Just one voice rising up above the sound

And into my dream you can fall

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow

We don't need anybody here at all

They just get in our way

And in my dreams I am the one you call

Slowly we're dancing away

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow

City rhythm dancing in my head (City rhythm dancing in my head)

We can feel the city rhythm moving overhead (city rhythm moving overhead)

Up above us of sight and far away

In our dreams we fly away to follow
