Living here for years and years
Riding out the stormy weather
We're waiting for the day to come
That gets us back together

In the city of cities
You may think you're alone
Then you turn a corner
And there's a new wind blowing
There's a dream we'd forgotten
That we've known all along
Where the street and the avenue meet
The heart beats strong

Looking out for number one
Looking past each others eyes
Has made us blind for far too long
Now the sun is bound to rise

In the city of cities
You may think you're alone
Then you turn a corner
And there's a new wind blowing
There's a dream we'd forgotten
That we've known all along
Where the street and the avenue meet
The heart beats strong

A message of hope
A message of peace
A message of helping each other
Is all the message we need

In the city of cities
You may think you're alone
Then you turn a corner
And there's a new wind blowing
There's a dream we'd forgotten
That we've known all along
Where the street and the avenue meet
The heart beats strong

Where the street and the avenue meet
The heart beats strong
In the city of cities
