Journey - Lights Lyrics






When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Ooh, I wanna be there, yeah, in my city
Oh, whoa, oh
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh

So you think you're lonely
Well, my friend, I'm lonely, too
I wanna get back to my city by the bay
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh

It's sad
Oh, there's been mornings out on the road without you
Without your charms
Oh, whoa, oh
My, my, my, my, my, my
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Ooh, I wanna be there, yeah, in my city
Oh, whoa, oh
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Ooh, I wanna be there, yeah, in my city
Oh, whoa, oh
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh
Mm
Oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh

    This song brings me to tears everytime. It reminds me of my Sis and I when we were little, on board the descending plane, flying into our precious San Francisco bay Area,California, from our annual trip from Argentina. We would have our head phones on listening to this song, with tears streaming down our face... because we were coming home. I never knew how much more this song would be to me now that my sis is so very sick, with Brain cancer. I love you Sis and I will cherish this song forever.... 💔
