Yellow lights on the avenue
Honeysuckle along the fences
The sound of sirens in the background
The city remains quiet for a while
Gas stations like blinking stars
Illuminating the evening skies
Tonight you can feel it
Tonight
There is a certain romance
With a certain fragrance
And a certain silence
Something you can't enhance
Night traffic jam on the bridges
Concrete squares like breaches
You don't want to escape
Tonight
Summertime marks a truce
There is a beauty in the cool night
Tonight tonight tonight tonight
You can feel it
There is a certain romance
With a certain fragrance
And a certain silence
Something you can't enhance
You can't explain
You can't explain
But tonight
You can feel it
There is a certain romance
With a certain fragrance
And a certain silence
A certain distance
There is a certain romance
And a certain absence
