McFly "Silence Of The City" |
It was Tuesday afternoon I got home from work quite soon I turned on the t.v. and what did I see I saw World War Three staring back at me I thought I might wake up to reality There wasn't gonna be Yeah And all I could see was this horrific tragedy In the silence of the city no mobile phones ring In the silence of the city you cannot hear a thing In the silence of the city the smiles are washed away In the silence of the city there's nothing left to say And New York New York So good they named you twice The city that never sleeps Do you believe your eyes And by this act of war Big apple is eaten to the core And two tall towers crumble to the floor And Manhattan isn't there It's there no more In the silence of the city no mobile phones ring In the silence of the city you cannot hear a thing In the silence of the city the smiles are washed away In the silence of the city there's nothing left to say And hardened New York cops with tears in their eyes Tired amd worn out fire-fighters hoping to hear cries And emergency And medics overcome by exhaustion And all rescue workers filled with deep emotion In the silence of the city no mobile phones ring In the silence of the city you cannot hear a thing In the silence of the city the smiles are washed away In the silence of the city there's nothing left to say The eleventh of September Two thousand and one The world trade centre and the U.S. Pentagon These pictures that we see almost defies belief On the streets of New York City people are hit by sheer grief In the silence of the city no mobile phones ring In the silence of the city you cannot hear a thing In the silence of the city the smiles are washed away In the silence of the city there's nothing left to say The New York City skyline we all admired before The tall twin towers simply are there no more In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence of the city In the silence Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
