Marshall Hain's, "Dancing in the City"

Pleased strangers' love affairs
At light and time
If you're feeling dull and drummed-out
We can really make you shine
Dancing in the city
Hours that we run through

Pleased to see another face
At light-up time
If you're feeling dull and run-down
We can really make you shine
Dancing in the city
Alleys that we run through
