Living In the City Lyrics


Let's celebrate, let's celebrate, living in the city
Yeah yeah, aye aye, yeah yeah, yeah!Sitting in cafs, drinking Brazil
Watching old ladies struggle up the hill
The sun is winking at me, giving me the eye
There's no better place to watch the time trickle by'Cos we're living in the city, there ain't no room for peace
Wow, we're living in the city, there ain't no time for sleep
Hey, we're living in the city where everything is free
Oh, where I wanna be, hey hey, is living in the city
City, cityWalking 'round the buildings, watching pictures on the wall
People lying homeless, got no love at all
Standing next to history, everything is grand
People from the country never understandThat we're living in the city, there ain't no room for peace
Wow, living in the city, there ain't no time for sleep
Hey, living in the city where everything is free
Oh, where I wanna be, hey hey, is living in the city
City, city
City, yeah yeah
CityFind yourself a place

(Oh, find yourself a place)
Where there's caring and there's sharing
Find yourself a space
Where there's loving
(Loving)
Hoping
(Hoping)
Touching, feeling, feelingLiving in the city, there ain't no room for peace
We're living in the city, there ain't no time for sleep
We're living in the city where everything is free
Where I wanna be is living in the cityWe're living in the city, there ain't no room for peace
Wow, we're living in the city, there ain't no time for sleep
Hey, we're living in the city where everything is free
Oh, where I wanna be, hey hey, living in the cityLiving in the city, yeah
Wow, we're living in the city now, hey hey
Wow, we're living in the city, yeah yeah yeahWhere I wanna be, where I wanna be
Living in, living in, living, living in the city
We're living in, living in, living, living in the city
We're living in, living in, living, living in the cityWhere I wanna be, where I wanna be
Oh oh, ah ah ah, oh, ah ah
Oh oh, ah ah ah, oh, ah ah
Oh oh, ah ah ah, oh, ah ah
Where I wanna be, yeah yeah yeahWe're only, we're only, we're only
We're only, we're only, yeah yeah yeah

Des'ree, born Desiree Weeks on November 30, 1968 in London, England was one of Britain's most successful pop/soul vocalists throughout the 1990s. She changed her name from Desiree Weeks because she preferred a two-syllable name.

In 1994 the hit single "You Gotta Be" hit Billboard Top 5 and was a hit in the UK three times. It also allowed Des'ree to break into America. "You Gotta Be" was also a major hit in the United States, and it was featured in the movie The Next Karate Kid, starring Hilary Swank. The second song from Des'ree's second album, "Crazy Maze" featured in the movie Nothing to Lose. Coincidentally, her last album ("Dream Soldier") featured a song entitled "Nothing to Lose". Her song "Kissing You" featured on the 1996 Baz Luhrman movie "Romeo + Juliet" and is generally considered to be one of her greatest works and a showcase for her distinctive and impressive vocals.

In 1999, she won a Brit Award for the British Female Solo Artist category. Her 2003 release Dream Soldier was considerably less successful.
