The song describes a woman dreaming of the future and living in the moment while taking in all life has to offer, both the good and bad, represented by the bright lights and big city. It also references a man who seems to be constantly running from something.

Living, learning, watching, burning Eyes on the sun Im leaving, gone yesterday Brutal, laughing, fighting, fucking The price I had to pay Bright lights, big city She dreams of love. Brights lights, big city He lives to run.

Bights lights, big city He lives to run
