Light up, light up
Light up your lazy blue eyes
Moon's up, nights up
Taking the town by surprise
Night time, night time
Day left an hour ago
City life time
Must you get ready so slow
Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spilling out into the street
Colors go flashing in time
Take off, take off
Take off your stay at home shoe
Break off, shake off
Take off those stay at home blue
Stairway, stairway
Down to the crowds in the street
They go their way
Looking for faces to greet
But we run on laughing with no one to meet
Night in the city looks pretty to me
Night in the city looks fine
Music comes spilling out into the street
Colors go waltzing in time
Light up, light up
Light up your lazy blue eyes
Moon's up, nights up
Taking the town by surprise
Night time, night time
Day left an hour ago
City light time
Must you get ready so slow
Night time in the city, night time
Night time in the city, night time
Night time in the city, night time
