[00:00.00]The City - Sarah Harmer
[00:19.74]The city was too late for us
[00:22.27]
[00:23.08]I got there and you wanted to get away
[00:26.58]
[00:27.28]The city was too great for us
[00:29.63]
[00:30.49]We slept through the blue skies on the clouds on the duvet
[00:34.49]And the streets are all too straight for us
[00:37.15]
[00:37.88]A parade of nobility seen from above
[00:41.22]
[00:42.07]The city is to blame for us
[00:44.36]
[00:45.67]And what was our love
[00:49.00]
[00:51.74]What was
[00:52.56]
[00:56.72]The city makes you make a fuss
[00:59.12]
[01:00.39]There's places to meet up under the light
[01:03.47]
[01:04.24]The city's got its stake in us
[01:06.51]
[01:07.45]It's keeping receipts of our hello's and our high's
[01:11.74]And everything is made of dust
[01:13.89]
[01:15.12]From the box of the comics to the little street mice
[01:19.06]The city takes so long to get quiet and lust
[01:23.24]
[01:24.01]Wasn't sleeping that night
[01:25.96]Before we knew it we knew it was right
[01:29.48]
[01:32.77]Before we blew it I didn't know that we might
[01:38.16]
[01:40.68]And now it's somebody's story and I'm not sorry that it's mine
[01:47.04]
[01:48.08]Before we knew it we were out of time
[01:54.10]
[01:55.77]The city says"oh if I could"
[01:58.35]
[01:59.43]Well the rain-soaked battered view makes you not sure
[02:03.09]Am I walking in your neighborhood
[02:05.68]
[02:06.24]I was just driving by the rain down the streets where we once were
[02:10.64]And even though it's way too late
[02:12.94]
[02:13.56]Time seems to have stopped still where we stood
[02:17.51]You ran back and then you're somewhere in the city
[02:20.39]You're somewhere in the city and I hope you're good
