Brother Firetribe - Big City Dream

She was born with a silver spoon in
A house full of glitter and gold
Mom and daddy were always working
She was always lonely and cold
She looked in the mirror one day
Got scared of the bloodshot eyes
She knew it would cost her dearly
If she'd stay and just fantasize

Now she'd had enough of pretending
To be the kinda girl her parents want her to be
She'd had enough of living a lie

And she said
So long, she waved goodbyes to her hometown
Caught a ride on a greyhound
Swore she'd never return
So long to every great expectation
To a boring life without passion
She needed to be free
And live that big city dream
Live that big city dream

Got off at Sunset Junction
Surprised by the festival crowd
She knew in her heart she'd moved on
And that made her scared and proud
It was not about fortune nor fame
Just something she did for herself
To her it was just the same
She jumped on the carousel

The neon lights on the concrete
The angels of the city keep calling her name
Keep her awake in a big city dream

And she said
So long, she waved goodbyes to her hometown
Caught a ride on a greyhound
Swore she'd never return
So long to every great expectation
To a boring life without passion
She needed to be free
To be free

She landed a job waiting tables
Serving them whisky and wine
Learned all the tales and the fables
Trusting someday the stars will align

And she said
So long, she waved goodbyes to her hometown
Caught a ride on a greyhound
Swore she'd never return

And she said
So long, she waved goodbyes to her hometown
Caught a ride on a greyhound
Swore she'd never return
So long to every great expectation
To a boring life without passion
She needed to be free
And live that big city dream
