Growing up you saw a lot of things
Safe beneath your daddy's wings
Sometime you broke the rules
But he didn't have to know

There are times when it breaks you back
But I promise that it's not that band
Gotta stand, gotta get back up
Gotta keep on moving on

This city is a highlight
a highlight of my life
It's just gonna fly by, it's just gonna fly by
A pity that you can't stay
Shame that it's gonna change
You're one in a million (one in a million)

Standing up it's like standing down
Never know if you'd just walk out
Gotta fight for what you want and never give it up
There are days when you'll feel so bad
But I promise that it's not that bad
Just remember that I'm always here
even when its rough

This city is a highlight
a highlight of my life
It's just gonna fly by, it's just gonna fly by
A pity that you can't stay
Shame that it's gonna change
You're one in a million (one in a million)

I promise that you'll get there soon and I
Promise that I'll be there too, cause I
Yea I just wanna be with you (be with you)
This city is a highlight
a highlight of my life
It's just gonna fly by, it's just gonna fly by
A pity that you can't stay
shame that it's gonna change
You're one in a million (one in a million)
