lyrics

City By You (By Rick Carpick and Grant Smith)

Verse 1:

We fall through the cracks, of the sidewalk when we laugh
Then it’s 1, 2, 3, 4, we’re out the door
The door leads outside, to the world in which we hide
The loneliness we feel, deep inside

We’ve locked the door forever, and hidden all the treasure
in our lives, in our lives

Chorus:

Now I have heard there’s a story or two, to be told about a city by you
City by you

Verse 2:

The lights up above used to spell out "LOVE"
Now the writing on the wall says "gone To Hell"
So much idle chatter, all the gossip they can gather
They play back at us on TV

We can’t stay cold forever, with all this raging weather
in our world, in our world

Chorus

There’s a big full moon shining on the sidewalk, walking in a city by you, mighty damn cold, I’m walking...
