Larry Landgraf - City Gal Lyrics

He knew that it could happen, but no one thought it would
The world has turned to ashes, nothing left of his hoods
He's standing in the ruins
Of his old home

She came from the city with nothing but her clothes
She left her life behind her, she didn't have a choice
She's walking through a wasteland
She's lost all hope

But miracles and wonders came to this desert land
He laid his eyes upon her, she offered him her hand
Together they would struggle
Until the end

They built a life together with nothing but their hands
Without one another they wouldn't stand a chance
And one night after sunset
The young man said

City girl came to my land
She touched my soul and held my hand
She's the one that saved me from the darkness

City girl I love you so
That's a fact I know you know
We're the ones who live here ever after

I will take good care of you and you will do the same
By keeping close together we'll make the best of hell
Step by step and stone by stone
Day by day

One night without notice they watched it from afar
The home they built together, lit up by the stars
He turned his face towards her
And the young man said

City girl came to my land
She touched my soul and held my hand
She's the one that saved me from the darkness

City girl I love you so
That's a fact I know you know
We're the ones who live here ever after

City girl came to my land
She touched my soul and held my hand
She's the one that saved me from the darkness

City girl I love you so
That's a fact I know you know
We're the ones that live here ever after

City girl came to my land
She touched my soul and held my hand
She's the one that saved me from the darkness

City girl I love you so
That's a fact I know you know
We're the ones who live here ever after
