70 A

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, it's been years since I've been lost in you Unearthing memories each avenue You're my oldest friend Please come back again I looked for you within the neon blur I listened for you in each soft whisper Hoping it would end And you'd be back again But you're not back again [Chorus] I know this city as I know a lover Who has stolen the covers and Rolled away from me His scent, it lingers just beyond my fingers He's worlds away when he is Lying next to me [Post Chorus] (Little Edie) I don't know, I don't know Better check on mother and the cats Depressing, you know, when winter sets in here You know, cause I don't like the country And I don't want to be here I hate to spend the winter here though Oh god, another winter [Verse 2] Now every streetlight glows a softer hue Every party's end feels overdue And as if on cue I sit and think of you I know there's nothing really in a name Know that sorrow's springs will feel the same Guess I can't explain the memory away [Chorus] I know this city as I know a lover Who has stolen the covers and Rolled away from me His scent, it lingers just beyond my fingers He's worlds away when he is Lying next to me [Outro] (Big Edie) Yeah, everything's good that you didn't do At the time you didn't want it (Little Edie) I couldn't get away (Big Edie) Well you - that's a choice You can't go back and say- Feel gorgeous right now- (Little Edie) I couldn't leave (Big Edie) And say, oh why didn't I do this? (Little Edie) I couldn't leave (Big Edie) Because you didn't feel then the way you do now Everybody thinks and feel differently as the years go by, don't they? (Little Edie) Yeah... (Big Edie) Yeah What time is it, chicken?
