Город Полночного Солнца

The City of Midnight Sun

Rain's falling and shelter is nowhere in sight.
A coffee shop on the corner is open all night.
A bell-ringer has climbed halfway up his tower -
It's too late to start running for cover
In the city of midnight sun
In the city of midnight sun

A night porter has quit; his job’s up for grabs.
He’s just looking across a yellow river of cabs.
Two young lovers walk through the valley of light;
Drifters sipping their wine in the shadows
In the city of midnight sun
In the city of midnight sun

A policeman got tired of browsing the web.
Sleepy girl on the sidewalk is watching her step.
Street band still digs all your favourite songs,
Holding silver and gold in their baskets till dawn
In the city of midnight sun
In the city of midnight sun

I’ve been breathing this air since I turned fifteen -
I can’t see any reason for changing the scene.
I will take my chances and will stand my ground.
I’ll walk these streets till my legs give out
In the city of midnight sun
In the city of midnight sun

We will see each other where all streets meet
In the city of midnight sun
