[Intro]
City on my tongue
Glitter on my shoes
Taxi doors slam
I’m already thinking you (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Got you in that thrifted dress
Looks like custom, nothing less
You just laugh, you say it’s cheap
I say you make the plastic gleam
Sidewalk smells like smoke and rain
Billboards screaming out our names
Every window catching gold
But you glow warmer in the cold
[Pre-Chorus]
Every corner feels like it’s staged for us
Every stranger turns into audience
If this is still just the start of the night
Why does it feel like the highlight?
[Chorus]
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you
Every little move you make
Turns the crosswalk to a runway, yeah it’s true
We don’t need a script
We just improvise the view
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you (like you)
[Verse 2]
You steal fries off of my plate
Lip gloss on my soda taste
Neon menu, corner booth
You’re debating star signs, brutal truth
Phone out, blurry photo spam
You say “don’t you dare tag fam”
I just tag it in my mind
Pinned that moment, pressed in time
[Pre-Chorus]
Every joke you drop feels like fireworks
Every eye that rolls, it just makes it work
If this is still just the start of the night
Why does it feel like the highlight?
[Chorus]
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you
Every little move you make
Turns the crosswalk to a runway, yeah it’s true
We don’t need a script
We just improvise the view
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you (like you)
[Bridge]
Running past the late-night store (hey!)
Laughing till we can’t no more
You spin on the sidewalk
I swear the skyline stops to watch
If the sun comes up too fast
Let it chase us, we’ll outlast
Streetlamps fade to something new
Still, the brightest thing is you
[Chorus]
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you
Every little move you make
Turns the crosswalk to a runway, yeah it’s true
We don’t need a script
We just improvise the view
Sex in the city light
The night is shining bright and beautiful like you (oh you)
