Kansas City Lights
Six months out at sea
Be coming home soon on leave
I think of her as I stand here on the deck
Stars light the sky like a Kansas City night
Reflections on the water take me back
Kansas City lights
In my mind they shine so bright
She's waitin' there, I've been away too long
Kansas City lights
Shine for me tonight
Watch over her for me 'til I get home
No war is ever won
Find a job that must be done
It's just sometimes, it feels like no one cares
Waves are calm tonight
As I take my pen and write
You're always in my dreams and in my prayers
Kansas City lights
In my mind they shine so bright
She's waiting there, I've been away too long
Kansas City lights
Shine for me tonight
Watch over her for me 'til I get home
I dream I feel the plane descending
Above the lights of Kansas City
And as the plane touches down
I see her standing there right now
Kansas City lights
In my mind they shine so bright
She's waiting there, I've been away too long
Kansas City lights
Please shine for me tonight
Watch over her for me 'til I get home
(Kansas City lights)
(Shine for me tonight)
She's waiting there, I've been away too long
Kansas City lights, oh
Please shine for me tonight
Watch over her for me 'til I get home
