Lyrics

Here in the city we stand hand in hand
without plans for tomorrow
I said I must be getting home I'll call you
when I know what's tomorrow

And she smiles though it's not the same
smile I used to see on her face
I know she's in there and it's killing me
to see here like this

I could help her now
I don't know how
I'll wait it out for
tomorrow

CHORUS:
I'll go anywhere cause anywhere's not here
I'd give anything, if anything can take me away
away, away, away

I can still remember the day that I went away
and left her here to the city
I don't think she remember the night
when it all changed when the light changed it's
such a pity

And I heard the news though it didn't really
phase me at first
She's not home anymore where she was
and what's worse
I can't be around, I want to be, it's such a lonely sound
when she says

CHORUS

Say you'll stay say you won't go away
not today all their faces are cold
There's no life in them at all
I'm so lost I'm so empty it's not me
It's this city
That's bringing me down.
