Your paintings are bright Your paintings are bright They'll wake you at night They'll take you at night To a place where you'll see A place where you'll see Where you never met me You've never been sure You're never quite sure What you are looking for What you are looking for But you know when it's gone You'll know when it's gone When your life feels too long
The city has ways Of wearing us down The city has ways Of stealing our crown
Well I have these thoughts I've got these these thoughts But I think they're alone Least I think they're alone Won't you back me up? Oh won't you back me up? Or I'm not giving up You've never been sure You're still not quite sure What you are looking for What you are looking for But you'll know when it's gone Yeah you know when it's gone When your life feels too long
The city has ways Of wearing us down The city has ways Of stealing our crown
To a place where you'll see A place where you see Where you never met me To a place where you'll see A place where you see Where you never met me
The city has ways Of wearing us down The city has ways Of stealing our crown
