ABBA - I Am The City

Coming through a cloud and looking at me from
above

And I'm a revelation spreading out before your
eyes.

And you find me beautiful and irresistible

A giant creature that forever seems to grow in
size.

And you feel a strange attraction,

the air is vibrant and electrified.

Welcome to me, here I am, my arms are open
wide.

Somewhere in the middle of the never-ending
noise

There is a pulse, a steady rhythm of a heart
that beats.

And a million voices blend into a single voice

And you can hear it in the clamour of the
crowded streets.

People come and take their chances,

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose a lot

Come, make your own contribution to this
melting pot.

On the street you walk, the language you talk
I am the city.

The skyline is me, and the energy I am the
city.

The famous hotels and the cocktail bars

And the funny smells, and the turmoil of
course.

And the people, the air that you're breathing
is me

Yes I am the city, you let me be.

People greet me with their lives,

I am a hungry soul

And they all worship me and pay their homage,
day and night.

Every day I meet a lot of tired shopping
people

But come tonight they will be dancing in the
neon lights.

Dazzled by the crazy music,

they're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf.

And in the wind, if you listen hard, you'll
hear me laugh.

On the street you walk, the language you talk
I am the city.

The skyline is me, and the energy I am the
city.

The famous hotels and the cocktail bars

And the funny smells, and the turmoil of
course.

And the people, the parks and the squares that
you see

All the sounds that you hear and the air that
you're breathing is me.

Yes I am the city, you let me be.

I am the city, you let me be. I am the city

The famous hotels and the cocktail bars

And the funny smells, and the turmoil of
course.

And the people, the air that you're breathing
is me

Coming through a cloud and looking at me from
above

And I'm a revelation spreading out before your
eyes.

And you find me beautiful and irresistible

A giant creature that forever seems to grow in
size.

Somewhere in the middle of the never-ending
noise

There is a pulse, a steady rhythm of a heart
that beats.

And a million voices blend into a single voice

And you can hear it in the clamour of the
crowded streets.
