Birds Of Tokyo Lion
[Verse 1]
It's way past midnight and she's still up thinkin'
Heavy-hearted and got trouble sleepin'
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 sayin'
[Chorus]
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won't sleep tonight
I'm chasin' the bright lights
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I'm chasin' the big bright lights
[Verse 2]
Four paper walls and a fan on the ceilin'
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
Onе last look at a room she's so over
Therе's a voice saying "Go"
In her heart and her soul
I can hear her sayin'
[Chorus]
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won't sleep tonight
I'm chasin' the bright lights
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I'm chasin' the big bright lights
[Post-Chorus]
Chasin' the big bright lights
I'm chasin' the big bright lights
I'm chasin' the big bright lights
[Bridge]
(I hear her, I hear her sayin')
(I hear her) I've been here too long in this cage
(I hear her sayin') Give me just one night to escape
(I hear her) Won't let the fear take anything
(I hear her sayin') I won't be the one to give it power
(I hear her) Too many times I've settled for less
(I hear her sayin') Tearing a hole in my happiness
(I hear her) To be free, you've got to be sure
(I hear her sayin') Sometimes you'll lose what you were before
Now hear me roar
[Pre-Chorus]
So take a listen tonight
In the city, you'll find
She got nothing to hide
I can still hear her sayin'
[Chorus]
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Make this city my jungle, I won't sleep tonight
I'm chasin' the bright lights
I wanna run through the streets like a lion
Wanna roam with the wild ones and run free tonight
I'm chasin' the big bright lights
(I hear her) I'm chasin' the big bright lights
(I hear her sayin') I'm chasin' the big bright lights
(I hear her) I'm chasin' the big bright lights
She wants to run like a lion (Chasing the big bright lights)
Chasing the big bright lights (I hear her)
She wants to run like a lion
