lyrics

Cast your weapon carefully
And then follow the girl into the night
Tap her on her shoulder
And she’s so pretty, love the fear in her eyes
Ohh, it came as no surprise

And then, then, life for his laid out bare
Crawling on her hands and knees
And then, then, last breath she gave as he took her away
Crawling on her hands and knees
A yellow sign for us and them to see

Midnight in the city, no time for love no time for, pain
Midnight in the city, no time for love no time for, pain

And then, then, his hell for hers to harm she will come
All at once he’s satisfied, yes he is
And then, then, into a dream born not to run from
All at once he’s satisfied
A yellow sign for us and them to see

Midnight in the city, no time for love no time for, pain
Midnight in the city, no time for love no time for, pain
