Lights go down in the city
And nothing seems so pretty
It seems like such a pity
To feel lost in the city

No reason to feel alone
Come on and make your way home
'Cause it’s been way too long
And you know it’s where you belong

East, north south, and west
My home is still the best
I’ve traveled near and far
By plane and by car
And as I play this old guitar
The stars are calling me home

It’s like a familiar melody
The wind whistlin’ through the trees
You feel the warmth of your family

When you feel lost in the city
And life don’t seem so pretty
Just hum this little ditty
You’ll escape and make your way home
From the city

Don’t be afraid to escape
From the city
