Hundred Story City

What am I doing here?
In the middle of freaking New York City
Blurting out proposals
And holding Cabernet
And what am I doing here with Claire?
Trying to push our lives somewhere she
Clearly doesn't want since she is gone
And if we're moving nowhere
Should I move on?
I move to the city and I thought I couldn't take it
And certaintly I never thought I'd stay and then she came along
And was the one thing in the city that made
Me feel like I belonged here every single day
No matter where she'd take me she would always
Make mea part of some great tapestry the world had spun
I can always look at her and not feel so alone
And suddenly that's done
Isn't it?
Cause now I can't make heads or tails of what we have been doing.
I thought stepping up and moving in would make things clear
The one thing in this city that I always thought was certain
She and I were working hard to build a future here
And maybe I was careless,
Maybe I should try to wear less of my
Heart upon my sleeve and let her say goodbye.
But I don't want to start that now, I don't want to let go
Cause she's the only reason why
I'm living in this hundred story city
Where you gotta hold on tight to what you care for
She's why I'm one out of a hundred million people
Sticking out the angry cars, the crowded streets, the lack of stars
Putting up with so much it's all a blur
And that's what I've been doing just to be with her
So I don't understand what I'm supposed do now
Deb & Claire: Why are there so many people in my way?
Warren: Hey! Hello!
Jason: I don't want to be a person
Deb & Claire: I don't understand these people
Warren: Why am I
All: always standing still I wish
That I could make the people disappear
Jason: Accept for her
Claire: No crowds
Deb: No moms
Warren: a flier?
Claire: Some space
Claire & Deb & Warren: More room to get through.
Jason: I just want to see her
Clarie & Deb & Warren: No walls, no bikes, no buildings in my way
Jason: What am I doing in this hundred story city
Where you're always moving fast but going nowhere
Oh I don't care if there's a hundred million people
I just want to be with one
I always told you Claire that there
Was nothing we wouldn't make it through
But you've unearthed a breakup clause
Which is wanting to put life on pause
So Jesus Claire
What now?
