(Verse 1)

The night sky’s dark, the city's far below,

The engines hum, but they start to slow,

Through clouds we glide like silent ghosts,

New York’s lights, so close, so close.

(Chorus)

Oh, city of lights, shining so bright,

Will we see you again by the end of this flight?

With the engines' groan, and a trembling wing,

Hold tight, hold on, to everything.

(Verse 2)

The captain’s voice, it cuts through the air,

Saying “Stay calm, we’ll get you there.”

But eyes are wide, and hands are clenched,

With every drop, our breaths are drenched.

(Chorus)

Oh, city of lights, waiting below,

Will we make it down, or will we let go?

With the city of dreams just in our sight,

Hold tight, hold on, through this night.

(Bridge)

And every light down there, it seems to glow,

For every hope, every dream that we know,

And as the clouds begin to break,

Will we land, or lose it all in fate’s cold take?

(Chorus)

Oh, city of lights, gleaming so bright,

Are we falling, or still in flight?

With fate on the edge, and engines low,

Hold tight, hold on, don’t let go.

(Outro)

And if we touch down, the city will shine,

But if we don’t, well, we tried to fly.

So here we are, just breaths and steel,

Between hope and fear, raw and real.

Oh, city of lights, shining so bright,

Guide us home through this final night.
