When the daylight is falling down into the night
  And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
  It feels alright to go out to catch an outrageous thrill
  But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune
  Which never stand still
    Big city, big city nights
  You keep me burning
  Big city, big city nights
    When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
  And the long night has left me back at somebody's side
  It feels alright for a long sweet minute like hours before
  But it's more like looking out for something
  I can't find anymore
    Big city, big city nights
  You keep me burning
  Big city, big city nights
  Always yearning
    There is no dream
  That you can't make true, if you're looking for love
  But there's no girl
  Who's burning the ice away from my heart
  Maybe tonight!
    Big city, big city nights
  You keep me burning
  Big city, big city nights
  Always yearning
  Big city, big city nights
  You keep me burning
  Big city, big city nights
  Always yearning
