The city's gone to sleep now I'm driving through the streets now The city glitters in the dark The city glitters in the dark Your house fading to the background When we thought we had it planned out Now as I turn into the dark The city glitters where you are Will I look back to see You waiting there for me You waiting there for me yeah But like a fading dream You're further than I reach You're further than I reach, yeah I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night Days turn into weeks now But we're getting back our sleep now You're moving on I'm moving south Through friends I'm asking how you are But we move deeper in the years now You've met her I finally breathe out And as we're through the hardest part The city glitter seems so far Still I look back to see You waiting there for me You waiting there for me yeah But like a fading dream You're further than I reach You're further than I reach, yeah I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night I let you go with each passing night Will I look back to see You waiting there for me You waiting there for me yeah But like a fading dream You're further than I reach You're further than I reach, yeah
