As the City Sleeps

Somewhere, whilst the city is sleeping
a shady character is on the run creeping.
Somewhere, whilst the city is sleeping
an abandoned child is weeping.
Somewhere, whilst the city is sleeping
a dark secret is still worth keeping.
Somewhere, whilst the city is sleeping
a man in the depths of despair is leaping
Somewhere, whilst the city is sleeping
his hope is slowly seeping.

Somewhere, as the city is lying
a private eye is prying.
Somewhere, as the city is lying
the child is still crying.
Somewhere, as the city is lying
the secret keeper is still denying.
Somewhere, as the city is lying
the man gives up trying.
Somewhere, as the city is lying
so many people are slowly dying.
