The City Doesn't Look Good On You
I'm standing at the edge but I'm not falling
I'm only falling out of love
And you're driving me home at night
And there's something about your eyes
When I stumble over words
I can't contain my nerves
It's just something that you do
You play by your own rules
If only this was easy
Oh, you're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
I don't wanna be somebody's sometimes (sometimes)
But I waste all my time on you (you)
When you're gone, I count the minutes
All we have's unfinished business
Is it better to be alone
Instead of waiting by the phone?
Thought I knew you yesterday
Just another role you play
You're still such a mystery
You're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
(The city doesn't look good on you)
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
Tight buildings, but more space
There's something so awful about this place
High rise, moral high ground
I like us better with no one around
This tempo, I'm not used to
Crazy how I wasn't insecure before you
You're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
Tight buildings, but more space
There's something so awful about this place
High rise, moral high ground
I like me better with no one around
I'm only falling out of love
And you're driving me home at night
And there's something about your eyes
When I stumble over words
I can't contain my nerves
It's just something that you do
You play by your own rules
If only this was easy
Oh, you're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
I don't wanna be somebody's sometimes (sometimes)
But I waste all my time on you (you)
When you're gone, I count the minutes
All we have's unfinished business
Is it better to be alone
Instead of waiting by the phone?
Thought I knew you yesterday
Just another role you play
You're still such a mystery
You're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
(The city doesn't look good on you)
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
Tight buildings, but more space
There's something so awful about this place
High rise, moral high ground
I like us better with no one around
This tempo, I'm not used to
Crazy how I wasn't insecure before you
You're so cool
But the city doesn't look good on you
I know we could be great
But this thing we have is doomed
Tight buildings, but more space
There's something so awful about this place
High rise, moral high ground
I like me better with no one around
