City Of Dreams
Dirty South Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everything seems like a city of dreams,
I never know why,
But I still miss you.

There she's standing in a field of lights,
I close my eyes,
And I still miss you.
Oh, oh
And I still miss you,
Oh, oh
And I still miss you.

Everything seems like a city of dreams,
I never know why,
But I still miss you.

There she's standing in a field of lights,
I close my eyes,
But I still miss you.

Oh, oh
But I still miss you,




Oh, oh
But I still miss you.

Lyrics :
Everything seems like a city of dreams
I never know why
But I still miss you
There she's standing in a field of lies
I close my eyes
But I still miss you
Whoa-oh-oooh, whoa-oooh
I still miss you
Whoa-oh-oooh, whoa-oooh
I still miss you
Everything seems like a city of dreams
I never know why
But I still miss you
There she's standing in a field of lies
I close my eyes
But I still miss you
Whoa-oh-oooh, whoa-oooh
I still miss you
Whoa-oh-oooh, whoa-oooh
I still miss you

I heard this song in the club of the Mandalay bay hotel on Halloween night when it was on a Saturday in Las Vegas. And the whole place was packed and went absolutely crazy after each drop. It changed my life. You could feel it in the air.

Anyone get a sudden rush of euphoria and end up crying listening to songs like this? Fucking love EDM!

If you are feeling that way without any reason, you might want to talk to your GP. If it's just nostalgia or relating to the song, feel better for whatever pain you're going through 🫂

Roxxstar! Plug.
