The Go-Betweens - Here Comes A City Lyrics
Just pulled out of a train station we're moving sidewaysI'm sitting here with three other people in the carriagePassing churches, passing stations, a bustling complexI see a sequence 22 rivers out my windowPushing you away from mePushing you away from meThe skyscrapers the cloud scratchersHere comes a cityThe sandwich maker the trolleycar pusherHere comes a cityPushing you away from mePushing you away from meEtterzhausen, Frankfurt Central, here comes a cityAnd why do people who read Dostoevsky always look like Dostoevsky?A crowded train, a silent nightThe country's black and the cities are brightOn this flight, through the nightOn this flight, historic nightHere comes a city
