GENRE [Verse 1]
"Baby, don't you know this city loves you?"
Baby, yes, I know, I feel the same
In the dead of night, I listen quietly
The city speaks, it's crying out your name
Under city lights I'm walking lonely
Keeping pace with all I stand to lose
Fourteen weeks of distance from this city
Fourteen weeks of never seeing you
[Verse 2]
While the city sleeps, it's ours for taking
Until the sunrise greets us with its view
Those memories of dawn framed by your window
Are the best I've ever had since you came through
The city says, "don't worry, we'll be with you"
Its freezing wind's a fleeting kiss goodbye
"But how else should I feel if I'm not ready?"
Thе tears upon my windburnt face reply
[Bridge]
But if this city lovеs us, then why'd it make us leave?
My life's just gotten started, but now it's mine to grieve
A thousand miles away, there's my reason to keep hope
And one day, we'll return here, to the distant dream that helps us cope
[Verse 3]
"Baby, don't you know this city loves you?"
Baby, no, I don't, I feel its shame
I walk around at night in muddled rhythms
And let the tears fall, mixed with rain
Because I hate to say I loved it
Because I hate to say goodbye again
And maybe bonding was a mistake
If I wasn't ready to feel this pain
"Baby, don't you know this city loves you?"
Baby, yes, I know, I feel the same
In the dead of night, I listen quietly
The city speaks, it's crying out your name
Under city lights I'm walking lonely
Keeping pace with all I stand to lose
Fourteen weeks of distance from this city
Fourteen weeks of never seeing you
[Verse 2]
While the city sleeps, it's ours for taking
Until the sunrise greets us with its view
Those memories of dawn framed by your window
Are the best I've ever had since you came through
The city says, "don't worry, we'll be with you"
Its freezing wind's a fleeting kiss goodbye
"But how else should I feel if I'm not ready?"
Thе tears upon my windburnt face reply
