City Of Immigrants

(专辑： Washington Square Serenade - 2007)

Living in a city of immigrants
I don't need to go traveling
Open my door and the world walks in
Living in a city of immigrants
Living in a city that never sleeps
My heart keeping time to a thousand beats
Singing in languages I don't speak
Living in a city of immigrants

City of black
City of white
City of light
City of innocents
City of sweat
City of tears
City of prayers
City of immigrants

Living in a city where the dreams of men
Reach up to touch the sky and then
Tumble back down to earth again
Living in a city that never quits
Living in a city where the streets are paved
With good intentions and a people's faith
In the sacred promise a statue made
Living in a city of immigrants

City of stone
City of steel
City of wheels
Constantly spinning
City of bone
City of skin
City of pain
City of immigrants

All of us are immigrants
Every daughter, every son
Everyone is everyone
All of us are immigrants everyone
Living in a city of immigrants
River flows out and the sea rolls in
Washing away nearly all of my sins
Living in a city of immigrants

City of black
City of white
City of light
Living in a city of immigrants
City of sweat
City of tears
City of prayers
Living in a city of immigrants

City of stone
City of steel
City of wheels
Living in a city of immigrants

City of bone
City of skin
City of pain
City of immigrants
All of us are immigrants
