From the movie, Brave Little Toaster
- - - -
Life is like a journey on a road that s within
- - - -
Head says you should stay, but your heart says to begin
So you go
-
But you don t wanna go
- - - -
Any life worth living isn t life just filled with ease
- - - -
You just stay forgiving through the forest and the trees
And you ll go
-
Just where you wanna go
- - - -
Time flies by in the city of light
- - - -
Time stands still in the country
- - - -
There s no time for a fuss and a fight
- -
As we travel the land
- - - -
And I d be satisfied just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride
To the city, the city of light!
- - -
- - - -
Light shines like a diamond in the city at night
- - - -
When that diamond shines you know that everything s all right
But you know
-
We got a way to go
- - - -
Let us meet the master, we don t wanna make him wait
- - - -
You just keep a-knockin He will open up the gate
To that city of light
F# - B--A--G#--F#
- -
Master is a man with a plan I can understand
- - - -
Master is a man of great reflection
- -
Master is a man who lays his hand across the land
- -
Master is the man of our affection
- - - -
Time flies by in the city of light
- - - -
Time stands still in the country
- - - -
There s no time for a fuss and a fight
- -
As we travel the land
- - - -
And I d be satisfied just to be not denied
To reside with some pride
While I ride
To the city, the city of light!
