City Lights
I leave the quietness of the village
I take a leap of faith
Into the blinding Lights
These Lights hold the freedom I long
These Lights hold Hope's sweet song
'These City Lights carry strength for weary bones
And promise a future of bright colored tones
I leave the dullness of Farm life
And I jump headlong for the City Lights
The lights caress and warm my cold forehead
And the beauty of the place is more than i Fore heard
The city lights form dancing shadows
That herald my entry into my new home
The rancor of the city is my welcome applause
As I take a bow under these City Lights
