I lost my city The streets and shops Now not so pretty And all forgot The caffs and corners Where we'd once meet Are now all flattened with A brand new street I lost my city Where has it gone? Just an echo Of a night bird song I am the ghost Of these old streets The scruffy corner where friends And lovers used to meet One day you'll join me And you will see It's all that's gone that's Bothering me I lost my city Where has it gone? Just an echo of A night bird song You'll have your street That you will know Just some old place Your memories go You'll pass my face And then I'm gone Just an echo of A night bird song I lost my city Where has it gone? Just an echo of A night bird song
