The sun goes down, the night rolls in

You can feel it starting all over again

The [bad word] up and the music calls

You're getting tired of staring at the same four walls

You're out of your room and down on the street

Moving through the crowd and the midnight heat

The traffic crawls, the sirens scream

You look at the faces, it's just like a dream

Nobody knows where you're going

Nobody cares where you've been

'Cause you belong to the city

You belong to the night

Living in a river of darkness

Beneath the neon lights

 

You were born in the city

Concrete under your feet

It's in your moves, it's in your blood

You're a man of the streets

 

When you said goodbye, you were on [bad word] 
Trying to get away from the things you've done

Now you're back again, and you're feeling strange

So much has happened, but nothing has changed

You still don't know where you're going

You're still just a face in the crowd

 

You belong to the city

You belong to the night

Living in a river of darkness

Beneath the neon lights

 

You were born in the city

Concrete under your feet

It's in your blood, it's in your moves

You're a man of the street

 

You can feel it, you can taste it

You can see it, you can face it

You can hear it, hey, you're getting near it, hey

You wanna make it, cause you can take it

You belong to the city, you belong to the night

You belong to the city, you belong to the night

You belong, You belong
