The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you grow
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart, day-glo eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They were advertising in the skies
For people like us
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see
I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you've made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
Ohh-ooh
Ohh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
(Time, time)
Time
Won't leave me as I am
Time
Won't take the boy out of this man
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
The more you know, the less you feel
What some pray for what others steal
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily, luckily
Luckily
Luckily
Luckily
