Heard about it
For a long, long time
He took his chances and packed his bags
For the open wide
When he found it
The city met the sky
Light bent 'round corners and voices stretched
For miles and miles
So happy he could be
If only he would speak
But the words, they never came
What would they say? What would they say?
On your own in the City of Sound
Your breath fogs up the glass that won't let you out
Make your way, to yourself today
In the city, the city, the city of sound
Still he stumbled back
To the doubts he dropped like breadcrumbs
But the city called harder and harder
He didn't need to run
So happy he could be
If only he would speak
But the words, they never came
What would they say? What would they say?
On your own in the City of Sound
Your breath fogs up the glass that won't let you out
Make your way, to yourself today
In the city, the city, the city of sound
Been alone too long
Days have come and gone
Here the sun still hangs
Until he says when
And then he sang...
On your own in the City of Sound
On your own in the city...
On your own in the City of Sound
Your breath fogs up the glass that won't let you out
Make your way, to yourself today
In the city, the city, the city
In the city, the city, the city
In the city, the city, the City of Sound
