Metropolis Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh-oh, I can't even take it in
Oh-oh, I can't even take it in
Oh-oh, I left my heart in Metropolis

[Verse 1]
So far apart, I check that the coast was clear
I feel like a postcard, I wish you were here
Subway through the dark, carriage through the park
Taxi down the street, get out and use my feet
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home with you

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, as far as I can see
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis

[Verse 2]
A thousand miles feels like a million years
Like hundreds of postcards that say, "I wish you were here" (I can't even take it in)
Airplane through the sky, greyhound racing by
Dirt bike on the beach, sailboat on the sea
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home with you

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, as far as I can see
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis

[Verse 3]
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis

[Outro]
Oh-oh, I can't even take it in
Oh-oh, I can't even take it in
Oh-oh, I can't even take it in
Oh-oh, I left my heart in Metropolis
