DISCOGRAPHY - "Y" - LYRICS
THE EMPIRE LIGHTS
I went looking for my place, like a wandering lost soul does
When it finally dawned on me that the search was where it was
Now I’ve seen them a thousand times, but tonight they seem brand new
And I know we’re rolling close as the crown comes into view
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glorious sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
From the yellow desert sands through the western mountain trails
Past the flatlands and the farms that decorate these rails
Into the great northeast I see we’re getting near
Outside in the rushing air they suddenly appear
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glittering sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
I’m returning to a town that’s been bruised up and battered
But it’s where I need to be now I know what really mattered
And we’ve all been kicked around but we keep coming back for more
I can feel my pulse grow quick as we reach the Hudson shore
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glorious sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glittering sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
I went looking for my place, like a wandering lost soul does
When it finally dawned on me that the search was where it was
Now I’ve seen them a thousand times, but tonight they seem brand new
And I know we’re rolling close as the crown comes into view
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glorious sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
From the yellow desert sands through the western mountain trails
Past the flatlands and the farms that decorate these rails
Into the great northeast I see we’re getting near
Outside in the rushing air they suddenly appear
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glittering sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
I’m returning to a town that’s been bruised up and battered
But it’s where I need to be now I know what really mattered
And we’ve all been kicked around but we keep coming back for more
I can feel my pulse grow quick as we reach the Hudson shore
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glorious sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
When the Empire lights burst through the sky
It’s a glittering sight
Makes the whole world shine
Shine in the night
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
Royal Empire lights shine
