My Glorious Mess - Life In The City Lyrics

Out on the window ledges, hanging above
Lights from the buildings downtown offer their love
Circle the block for hours, lost in a fog
Life in the city baby there's no parking lot
Sippin' on coffee and we're happier now
You tell me the caffeine keeps you coming around

And it's all you need
Better watch your speed

Captions in black and white with photos to match
You were the cutest girl in your freshman class
Life in the city baby nowhere to hide
News on the TV screen said don't go outside

This is all you need, yeah
Better watch your speed

I got a plan honey
I got a car to take you away
Don't have much money
All that I got I'm willing to pay
Tracing the lines westward
Turning the locks on Avenue A
Pack up your bags and we're gone

Gimme emotion
A wind on the ocean
Blowing me over
And I don't even know her name

Save up your tears we're
We're bound for the country
Heading westward
Straight into Monday

And we're still moving out and away

And it's all you need
Better watch your speed

Cause I got a plan honey
I got a car to take you away
Don't have much money
All that I got I'm willing to pay
Tracing the lines westward
Turning the locks on Avenue A
Pack up your bags and we're gone
