Here Comes A City Just pulled out of a train station we're moving sideways I'm sitting here with three other people in the carriage Passing churches, passing stations, a bustling complex I see a sequence 22 rivers out my window
Pushing you away from me Pushing you away from me
The skyscrapers the cloud scratchers Here comes a city The sandwich maker the trolleycar pusher Here comes a city
Pushing you away from me
Pushing you away from me
Etterzhausen, Frankfurt Central, here comes a city And why do people who read Dostoevsky always look like Dostoevsky?
A crowded train, a silent night The country's black and the cities are bright
On this flight, through the night On this flight, historic night
