Verse 1

In the city where I'm from

There are lovers 'til the dawn

And you've stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long

Chorus

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

Who's gonna get up after we fall

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

2x

Verse 2

In the city where I'm from

Lions in cages just for fun

But you will pace around your cage

And wait for night to come

Verse 3

In the city where I'm from

They shoot you down if you're wrong

But we don't stop to check the time

'Cos time keeps moving on and on and on

Chorus

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

Who's gonna get up after we fall

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

2x

Bridge

I've seen you in another place

Eyes beckon familiar face

The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constraints

Just ignore all that you see

The illusion of you and me

Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never grow old

In the city where I'm from

There are lovers 'til the dawn

And you've stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long

Chorus

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

Who's gonna get up after we fall

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong

Who's gonna get up after we're gone

Ahhhhhhooohhhhhhh

The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constraints

Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never grow old
