Текст песни Cold and Lonely City

(Bobby Bare)

Big, old, cold and lonely city
Once I've thought you're pretty
But now you're not pretty anymore
Your tall buildings, flashing neon signs
Captured every dream of mine
And I came knocking on your heartless door.

I had visions of success
Planned my wealth and happiness
Can't we safely say I've been a fool
Like a fool I thought you had a heart
You tore my thoughts and dreams apart
Oh, cold and lonely city you've been cruel.

I fell in love, you watched me fall
I married in your City Hall
Couldn't hold your city girl
That wanted your big city world.

My best was just not good enough
I must admit you were too much
Concrete hearts are hard and cold as ice
Now I'm a going back where I should be
To mom and dad 'cause they love me
You cold and lonely city, it's been nice...
