have you ever seen the city at night
when all the streetlights are lit
inside a passing car on the freewaybut tonight things are different
the lights spring up and out
from the garden of lampsthey're big and bright and powerful
the cars block the sound
it's the silence that is leftand the city beckons me
in it's state of celebration
call them colors of comforthave you ever seen fireworks
across a lake of loneliness
they soar so high they become starsall while stopping in the night
hiding in the shelter of a tree
wrapped in evening's winds
