lyrics

My clock's slow I know
But I don't want to go
Over the years we've grown
From nights spent on our own
Let's head to the city
Bright lights and the girls are pretty
Take me to a time of romance
Arm length reach like a high school dance

This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away for not enough pay
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working and waiting for a chance to make it
This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away with not enough breaks
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working away for a chance to say

My name looks better in lights
My name looks better in lights

It doesn't matter anymore,
Broken promises and a broken dance floor
I'm not taking the blame for that
A golden heart but I'm not much to look at
Let's head to the city
Big sound and my lines are witty
Take me to a time of romance
Arm length reach like a high school dance

This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away for not enough pay
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working and waiting for a chance to make it
This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away with not enough breaks
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working away for a chance to say

My name looks better in lights
My name looks better in lights

O.. slowly you've grown
Slowly you've known
This city is home
You're never alone
No stars in the sky
They're hid by the light
The city at night
Takes me to a time

Let's head to the city
Bright lights and the girls are pretty
Take me to a time of romance
Arm length reach like a high school dance
Let's head to the city
Big sound and my lines are witty
Take me to a time of romance
Arm length reach like a high school dance

This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away for not enough pay
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working and waiting for a chance to make it
This is the sound of a man on the ground
Working away with not enough breaks
This is the sound of a lady going crazy
Working away for a chance to say

My name looks better in lights
My name looks better in lights
