Back To The City lyrics

I’m slipping in the slime I’m running out of time Abandoned in this hell You said all would be well But you lied! I’m going back I’m going back to the city Knockin’ on the door Back to the city To where I was before Back to the city Where I am not alone I’m going home Why would you leave me here As soon as troubles rise? Don’t give a place to fear He’ll wipe every tear from your eyes I’ve got my ball and jack And now I’m going back If now it’s dark and cold What more awaits you down this road? I’m going back to the city I can hardly wait Back to the city Passing through the gate Back to the city The lights, the stars, the show I’m coming home Back to the city Knocking on the door Back to the city To where I was before Light up the Superdome I’m coming home The man sank deep in that miry ground With the pack on his back still weighing him down While his friend left them there without even saying goodbye He reached to the side and found Hope was there As a hand helped him out of the pit of despair He shook himself and walked in the ways of the sky
