they might say they know the way you are to spend your time they might try to keep you down they said: c'mon girl we know the names we should protect you from burnin' love that rips your heart
one day you're strong enough to find yourself forever now you follow the blue fast car lines back to your big city lights
let them know about your each-night-lovely runaways make them read that from your eyes a thousand mornings when you're feeling bad & sad & lonely like thousand trains calling at your room
dirty eden's dream that you would like to dream but there's only water at the bottom of your heart it's your big city spleen
one day you're strong enough to find yourself forever when you follow the blue fast car lines ...you're the big city girl
