City Love
I never liked this apple much
It always seemed too big to touch
I can't remember how I found
My way before she came around
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I got a city love
I found it in Lydia
And I can't remember life before her name
She keeps a toothbrush at my place
As if I had the extra space
She steals my clothes to wear to work
I know her hairs are on my shirts
I tell everyone
I smile just because
I got a city love
I found it in Lydia
And I can't remember life before
The day she called up and came to me
Covered in rain
Dinnertime shadowing
And as the clothes spun
We spooned and I knew I was through
When I said: I love you
Friday evening we've been drinking
2 AM I swear I might propose
But we close the tab
Split a cab
And call each other up when we get home
Falling asleep
To the sound of sirens
I got a city love
I found it in Lydia
From the battery to the gallery
Its the kind of thing you only see
In scented glossy magazines
And I can't remember life before her name
