Lyrics:
It’s way past midnight and she’s still up thinking
Heavy hearted and got trouble sleeping
Feeling so low and alone again
A room with a view but nobody can see her
One tiny window where dreams disappear
As they fall to the floor
In her heart and her soul
I can hear her saying
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won't sleep tonight
I’m chasing the bright lights
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I’m chasing the big bright lights
Four paper walls and a fan on the ceiling
Feels like a trap with no way to get out
She’s got to find a way somehow
Keys in her hand as she heads for the front door
One last look at a room she’s so over
There’s a voice saying go
In her heart and her soul
I can hear her saying
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won't sleep tonight
I’m chasing the bright lights
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I’m chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright lights
(I hear her, I hear her saying)
I’ve been here too long in this cage
Give me just one night to escape
Won’t let the fear take anything
I won’t be the one to give it power
Too many times I’ve settled for less
Tearing a hole in my happiness
To be free you’ve got to be sure
Sometimes you’ll lose what you were before
Now hear me roar
So take a listen tonight
In the city you’ll find
She got nothing to hide
I can still hear her saying
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won’t sleep tonight
I’m chasing the bright lights
I want to run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I’m chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright lights
Chasing the big bright
