My City’s Gone

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They boarded up my favorite bar The Frenchman lost his restaurant And the secret alleys were rearranged I woke one day and it had changed [Chorus] My city's gone My city's gone Feeling lost in inevitable [Verse 2] On forty-three, my heart once beat On forty-five, I came alive And there was a spirit, so young and free It spoke to you, it spoke to me [Chorus: Francis and the Lights & Kanye West] My city's gone (My city, oh oh) Oh no, my city's gone (My city's gone) Feeling lost in inevitable [Verse 3] I met a man who coughed and swore That it had been changing since it was born That it was I and nothing more From twenty-three to thirty-four [Chorus] My city's gone My city's gone And I have to go My city's gone [Outro] I still found me back in the mall I will not decline Still feeling lost and nothing more I feel lost in time Does anybody happen to know (Happen to know) Way after I'm Still feeling lost and manageable I say nothing's right Tell it all from the heart I'm sitting out at the bar Tell it all that I'm making my way
