Uptown Lyrics

Skyscraping big city of dreams take me home
Deep down in the belly of the beast so far from the light
I'm going uptown

My soul's a sidewalk been stepped on all day
I've got to go home
Where I can air out my weary heart and ease my mind
I'm going uptown

But oooh there's no place like home

And in this city that never sleeps
Will I ever find the peace that I seek
Will I know that I'm in too deep
Will I know when I'm home, am I home?

Fast talking empire of lights shine down on me
I think I could drink up the night drink it right up
Uptown

If you're so new why do you make me
Feel so old, so old
I ought to paint you red and leave you for good
I know I should

But oooh there's no place like home

And in this city that never sleeps
Will I ever find the peace that I seek
Will I know that I'm in too deep
Will I know when I'm home, am I home?
Skyscraping big city of dreams take me home
Deep down in the belly of the beast
So far from the light I'm going uptown
I'm going uptown
I'm going up, I'm going up
I'm going uptown
I'm going up, I'm going up
I'm going....
