CITY GIRL – Neil Morrison
I thought you were the one, you were the love of my life, I wanted to make you my wife, well our house didn’t burn down from all the time that we were buying, it seems that you and I were just so damn good at fightin’.
You really let me down in the moments I really needed. Some days I feel like we were just quitters baby, using our desires as the reason we were defeated.
So go back, go back city girl, To the lights that you loved, oh the life we just crushed, Seems like sawdust was all we were made of.
I should have known when we first met downtown, I should have seen the way you were running around. You’d drag me in and out of all those dark crowded places, social butterflies don’t like those wide-open spaces.
Did I pin you down? And marvel at you through a lens? You said I wouldn’t let you fly away, I’m just holding on to the beginning before we end.
How could we love living our separate lives? How could we stand by each other’s side? I couldn’t groom, and you couldn’t bride, did we hit the end of the road, or just have way too much pride?
So go back, go back city girl, To the lights that you loved, oh the life we just crushed, Seems like sawdust was all we were made of.
Go back, go back city girl, To wearing those heels that make your feet hurt, You’ll see my boots kicking up the dirt Covering up the love we said we’d take to the grave.
