Ray Price -- City Lights

[video=youtube;Jir2V0iNoZY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jir2V0iNoZY[/video]

A bright array of city lights
As far as I can see
The Great White Way shines through the night
For lonely guys like me
The cabarets and honky tonks
Their flashing signs invite
A broken heart to lose themself
In the glow of city lights

Lights that say forget her name
In a glass of sherry wine
Lights that offer other girls
For empty hearts like mine
They paint a pretty picture
Of a world that's gay and bright
But it's just a mask for loneliness
Behind those city lights

The world was dark and God made stars
To brighten up the night
But I don't believe that God above
Made those city lights
For it's just a place for men to cry
When things don't turn out right
Just a place to run away and hide
Behind those city lights

Lights that say forget her love
In a different atmosphere
Lights that lure are nothing but
A masquerade for tears
They paint a pretty picture
Of a world that's gay and bright
But I just can't say I love you
To a street of city lights

Sirius/XM 40's on 4 playing Christmas music through 12-31-13!
I've been listening to this since Thanksgiving.
In fact, for the past few years I've used this to drive my wife crazy because I know they play it on a loop, and I start singing the next song before it starts. ;)
If I can get in tomorrow, I'll call the Elf Line and wish everyone on here a Merry Christmas.
That is if anyone else besides you (here) is listening to it.

BTW have you noticed in the Autry version, he says "Santy Claus?"
