The Coral - The Cry Of The City lyrics

rate me

Hear the cry as the city weeps

People moving through the street

And don't mind me, going down the the river

Working hard to make it pay

Working hard to make their way

But don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city

Can you hear the cry of the city?

Passed the statue where the water flows

Million faces that I'll never know

And don't mind me, going down the the river

Boats are leaving for another land

Watch it slipping through my hands

But don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city

Can you hear the cry of the city?

Hear the cry as the city weeps

People looking but no-one sees

And don't mind me, going down to the river

Like the actor in the film I saw

Had enough but wanted more

And don't mind me, going down to the river

I can hear the cry of the city

Can you hear the cry of the city?
