Mary J. Blige - City Of Lights lyrics

rate me

Feat. Fatman Scoop

(Verse)

Aye, yo, I grind in the day, play in the night

Shoot at you today but she stayin' the night

Light from the city, I know what the street said

There's no pity out here and he said

(Verse: Mary J. Blige)

You look like you're thinking

Something you don't wanna say (East Side)

I feel like I'm missing something

Why are you pulling away? (She smiles)

(Pre-Chorus)

His words scream through my head like the water

I can't take anymore and I wanna melt

So deep in the night like I wanna

Back in the world again

(Chorus)

I'm in your mind, only you're faded

This is the night, I'm tired of waiting

For once in my life, it's not complicated

It's not complicated, we're not gonna make it

Make it

(Bridge)

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

He said

(Verse: Mary J. Blige)

Just think of the love we had

How could you throw if away?

Please, baby, just tell me something

That would make me stay! (She smiles)

(Pre-Chorus)

His words scream through my mind like the water

I can't take anymore and I wanna melt

So deep in the night like I wanna

Back in the world again

(Chorus)

I'm in your mind, only you're faded

This is the night, I'm tired of waiting

For once in my life, it's not complicated

It's not complicated, we're not gonna make it

Make it

(Bridge)

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

He said

(Verse)

You see, I lost my baby somewhere in the city-o

I think I saw her somewhere in somebody video

I shouldn't even care about this girl, it's too many more

Cause I done been around the world, it's eeny, meeny, miny, moe

My show in Manhattan, she saw my paper stackin'

I never could imagine that I would see her packin'

How fashion did I bought without askin'

Relaxin' in the Aspens

I blew a million out in Vegas on the last Wednesday

I bought a ring and still her ass wouldn't stay

I thought forever we would last, but I was wrong

All the days have passed, all the hours gone

(Interlude)

Now I got it in my sight

Big city and bright lights

Fast rain, I'm gone

(Chorus x2)

I'm in your mind, only you're faded

This is the night, I'm tired of waiting

For once in my life, it's not complicated

It's not complicated, we're not gonna make it

Make it

(Bridge)

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

(We're not gonna make it)

Lost my baby in the city of lights

My baby in the city of lights

He said
