When shadows beckon on dim-lit avenues
Night people hear the call
From hidden alleys, secret rendezvous
They come out one and all
The city by night I`m wide awake
It never sleeps make no mistake
Whatever sets off the spark
A magic glow lights the dark
Then I`m intrigued by the sight
Of the city by night
Those crowded nightclubs
Those picturesque cafes
Are scenes no-one forgets
And I`m enchanted, music softly plays
By dancing silhouettes
The city by night I`m wide awake
It never sleeps make no mistake
The evening`s full of surprise
It`s magic opens my eyes
And I`m intrigued by the sight
Of the city by night
Yeah!
