"LA" lyrics

I never think of you when I'm stuck in my car
During sunset on Ventura Boulevard
The thought of you is far away here
That's my favorite part cause

I only think of you when my mind wanders east
And it hurts me for a second but at least
It was halfway 'cross the country
So it didn't ruin much for me
I wish you were here some days
But you can't erase a memory once it's made

But we'll always have Chicago
You can't take that away
And you'll always have London
And our phone calls in the rain

But if you break my heart at home
I'll be reminded every day
Of all the things that you could take
Please just let me have LA

I don't see you when I'm out at 2am
And you don't even know any of my friends
Call me selfish but I think it's best to keep it that way
I only see you in the corner of my mind
When I think back to the way we talked that night
And I miss it but if you were here this city'd never be the same

But we'll always have Chicago
You can't take that away
And you'll always have London
And our phone calls in the rain

But if you break my heart at home
I'll be reminded every day
Of all the things that you could take
Please just let me have LA

You can even have Chicago
I'll give it all away
I'll stay away from London
I won't call you when it rains

Cause if you break my heart at home
I'll be reminded every day
I'll forget you and as a trade
Please just let me have LA
