The sun goes down, the night rolls in
You can feel it starting all over again
The moon comes up and the music calls
You're gettin' tired of starin' at the same four wallsYou're out of your room and down on the street
Movin' through the crowd and the midnight heat
The traffic crawls, the sirens scream
You look at the faces, it's just like a dreamNobody knows where you're goin'
Nobody cares where you've been'Cause you belong to the city
You belong to the night
Livin' in a river of darkness
Beneath the neon lights
You were born in the city
Concrete under your feetIt's in your moves, it's in your blood
You're a man of the streetWhen you said goodbye, you were on the run
Tryin' to get away from the things you've done
Now you're back again and you're feeling strange
So much has happened but nothing has changedYou still don't know where you're goin'
You're still just a face in the crowdYou belong to the city
You belong to the night
Livin' in a river of darkness
Beneath the neon lights
You were born in the city
Concrete under your feetIt's in your blood, it's in your moves
You're a man of the streetYou can feel it, you can taste it
You can see it, you can face itYou can hear it, hey, you're getting near it, hey
You wanna make it, 'cause you can take itYou belong to the city, you belong to the night
You belong to the city, you belong to the nightYou belong
You belong
