Struggling with Metroland? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Yearning, we were yearning Green light blinding on the rail Burning - we were burning And the line unwinding to the Holy Grail To the future gleaming on a blue horizon And a golden girl on golden sand Dreaming, fantasizing In another world from Metro-land I've danced in rain, and I've been Django And I've got laid I've been a rolling stone I've been Verlaine And I've been Rimbaud Not afraid to walk alone And now I take my midnight ramble Do I fold or play what's in my hand? What's at stake and what's the gamble? Do I stay in Metro-land? Dreams, yesterday's laughter Ghosts and lovers come back to play But dreams have a morning after And run for cover In the light of day I got something real worth holding on to I can belong to and understand I've made my deal I will go on to Make my peace with Metro-land
