Dio - One Night In The City lyrics

He was promised to us all

But rides in the night, can lift you out of sight

When they call

Sally was a princess

She was chosen for the crown

But chains can't stop the sound

Of one night in the city

One night looking pretty

The someone opened doorways

And Johnny slipped away

Running for the bright, where dark is always light

But there's no day

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

I'm the bite, I'm the bark, I'm the scream

Are you poor, are you sure, are you holy, are you 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

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
