Ronnie James Dio - One Night in the City lyrics

Johnny was a dark child He was promised to us all But riders in the night Can lift you out of sight when they call That's all My Sally was a princess And she was chosen for the crown But chains can't stop the sound of One night in the city One night looking pretty Then someone opened doorways And Johnny slipped away Running for the bright Where dark is always light There's no day, no way The princess saw the dark child And the dark child said her name Come, steal away, we'll play the game Do you watch? Do you see? Do you know the people in me? I'm the bite, I'm the bark, I'm the scream I'm the poor, I'm the sure I'm the holy, I'm the pure I can tell you tales You just might not believe One night in the city One night looking pretty One night in the city One night looking pretty One night, one night One night, one night One night, one night The children shared the wonder Of the leather and the lace But one child went away And one child stayed to play for One night in the city One night looking pretty One night in the city One night touching pretty But chains don't make a wall And dreams lay where they fall Dark is never night When dreams make up the light One night in the city One night One night feeling pretty One night in the city One night Feeling pretty, pretty, pretty Pretty, pretty in the city One night, one night One night in the city One night One night, one night One night, one night One night, one night One night One night in the city One night, one night One night, one night One night, one night One child went away And one child stayed to play Chains don't make a wall Your dreams are made up Where they fall, in the city One night in the city One night in the city
