City Island

Sun reflects on the glass tower

Neon tides fade by the hour

Seagulls fly the concrete canyon

Singing to the people on and on

(On and on)

Ice water melts down the side

Mixing with the ocean tide

Sneakers on the grainy sand

Holding onto what we planned

(What we planned)

City Island, touch the sky

Watch the lonely world go by

City Island, waves and street

Where the pavement and the sea meet

Ice water melts down the side

Mixing with the ocean tide

Sneakers on the grainy sand

Holding onto what we planned

(What we planned)

City Island, touch the sky

Watch the lonely world go by

City Island, waves and street

Where the pavement and the sea meet

From the harbor lights so deep

To the promises we keep

Subway train and ocean roar

Floating off the distant shore

(Distant shore)

City Island, touch the sky

Watch the lonely world go by

City Island, waves and street

Where the pavement and the sea meet

City Island

(Island)

Floating high

Drifting...
