City of Immigrants (With Forro in the Dark)

Livin' in a city of immigrants I don't need to go travelin' Open my door and the world walks in Livin' in a city of immigrants Livin' in a city that never sleeps My heart keepin' time to a thousand beats Singin' in languages I don't speak Livin' in a city of immigrants City of black City of white City of light City of innocents City of sweat City of tears City of prayers City of immigrants Livin' in a city where the dreams of men Reach up to touch the sky and then Tumble back down to earth again Livin' in a city that never quits Livin' in a city where the streets are paved With good intentions and a people's faith In the sacred promise a statue made Livin' in a city of immigrants City of stone City of steel City of wheels Constantly spinnin' City of bone City of skin City of pain City of immigrants All of us are immigrants Every daughter, every son Everyone is everyone All of us are immigrants Everyone Livin' in a city of immigrants River flows out and the sea rolls in Washin' away nearly all of my sins Livin' in a city of immigrants City of black City of white City of light Livin' in a city of immigrants City of sweat City of tears City of prayers Livin' in a city of immigrants City of stone City of steel City of wheels Livin' in a city of immigrants City of bone City of skin City of pain City of immigrants All of us are immigrants All of us are immigrants
