"City Rain" lyrics

"City Rain"

'Cause you're running through the city rain
Living life, babe, higher dream
It's kind of funny how the clouds don't mean a thing now
And I heard you're living on your own
How's it feel to pay for your own phone?
You gotta job now, honey
Yeah, you did what you said you would do

And I never doubted you for a minute
For a minute, babe
I just thought that you were meant for more
And with all the years that we've wasted, it's time for our own lives
'Cause it's gonna rain in the city, so you might as well get out, babe

And now you're crying in the city rain
'Cause it just doesn't feel the same
As it did when you were young
You were in love, and now you work away your days
But ain't that all you ever wanted in your life?
In your life? Woah, woah
And now you're 60 and all your dreams are so far away
And you hate the way that you lived your life
But at least you made a few bones
And all your kids have left the nest and you're all alone
With your fading memory and you're so lonely
But at least you got a nice home

And I never doubted you for a minute
For a minute, babe
I just thought that you were meant for more
And with all the years that we've wasted, it's time for our own lives
'Cause it's gonna rain in the city, so you might as well get out, babe

But when you look back at the days
Will you forget all the ways that you went wrong?
Or will you remember all the things that didn't mean a thing at all?
Or will you say, it's all in my head, all in my head, all in my head?

Oh, it's in my head, in my head, in my head
Oh, it's in my head, in my head, in my head
Oh, it's in my head, in my head, in my head
Oh, it's in my head, in my head, in my head
Oh, it's in my head, in my head, in my head
