On the edge of a moment 
In a land that we love
In a time that our best has to be good enough
Like all those before us we start out alone
We race from our school yards into the unknown

City lights, as far as the eye can see
You and I, we will live differently

With our hearts in our hands like loaded guns
We're taking our chance, we're the lucky ones
This moment is yours, this moment is mine, 
And we're gonna be fine
Oh oh oh...

Searching for love counting steps as we go
Our parents they taught us there's no way to know
I still hear their voices in the back of my head
Saying you'll do it better than we ever did

City lights, as far as the eye can see
You and I, we'll do it differently

With our hearts in our hands like loaded guns
We're taking our chance, we're the lucky ones
This moment is yours, this moment is mine, 
And we're gonna be fine
Oh oh oh... Oh oh oh...

City lights, stretching from sea to sea
You and I, it was meant to be

With our hearts in our hands like loaded guns
We're taking our chance, we're the lucky ones
This moment is yours, this moment is mine, 
And we're gonna be fine
yeah, we're gonna be fine, yeah yeah…
This moment is yours this moment is mine, oh, 
And we're gonna be fine…
Oh oh oh... Oh oh oh...
