you're waiting for a train, kid
Well, I've been working in a gravel pit
I was feeling washed up and down
When you were still sucking your thumb
But yeah, this is your city now,
And you're seeing everything
when you're just walking around
Well, I once loved a shining star
And of that love I had no doubt
But I watched her walk into a bar
And I never saw her come down
And I still hope that I see her
Well, I had a friend who played guitar
And he always wrote the best song
And I still sing them to myself
He wasn't with us for too long
And we tried to have a gathering
But nobody had a thing to say
I guess that was always his job
He would always take our pain away
And I still miss every crazy
But I've been sleeping in an armchair
Or just a thing about your long hair
And I ran into your lover
Treated him just like my brother
But yeah, it was my city then,
Cause I just felt old and broke
when I was walking around
But may your dreams come true
When your feet first hit the ground
But if they don't, then darling,
And if you see a guy like me
Don't believe a word he speaks
what's best for you and me
I said could you ever come back
I said I don't think I could do that
I'm gonna die in the desert, yeah
Cause I think it will hurt a bit
But yeah, this is your city now
And I love that you love everything
When you're just walking around
I wish i could see you through your eyes
I wish I could see you...
