I'm lookin' over the skyline of the city

How loud, quiet nights in the mist of crime

How next door to happiness, lives sorrow

And signals of solution in the sky


[chorus]

A city of justice, a city of love

A city of peace for every one of us

We all need it, can't live without it

Gotham City (oh, yeah)


How sleeping awake because of fear (oh yeah)

How children are drowning in their tears

How we need a place where we can go

A land where everyone will have a hero (even me)


[chorus 2x]


Yet in the middle of stormy weather

We won't stumble and we won't fall

I know a place that offers shelter


[chorus 3x]


Gotham City (Gotham City)

Gotham City (oh yeah)

[2x]


Gotham City [repeat till end]
